You're Better Off

Wake up and embrace the quiet
I'm not there but that's alright
It's a new Dawn, a new day
Throw your guilt away
You didn't need me anyway

Rinse off your red, crusty eyes
You'll stop dreaming about me at night
Eventually all the memories of me
Everything you thought would make you happy
That's really hauntingly happy...will fade
You don't need this kind of pain today

There's going to be someone better than me
Don't argue, it's a guarantee
So much of your time will be free
Constantly comforting me isn't a need
Your weighted mind is finally freed
Give it some time…it'll grow easy

Today's the day you cease to want me
You're a new and stronger being
You'll probably never see me again
Happily remember our past events
Like I'm actually coming back
Please, you don't need to be sad

Today you're the reason I'm gone
It's for the best if we're being honest
I said I'd never hate you or say goodbye
But I'm a fucking mess inside
Don't be surprised that I lied
You should've seen it coming

I warned you I was messed up
My words you refused to head
The birds will sing without me
We're separated and you're free
Rest your head and dream
Dream your favorite things

This is your soft singing lullaby
A lullaby I wish I never had to write
I'm leaving from this constant fight
Today's a new dawn without me
You'll feel better when I'm not by your side
