"Better Off On Her Own" Lyrics

My girl came home to me
Just the other day acting okay
I was reading alone
In my favourite room, the TV was on

May I be excused
For not telling the truth?

'Cause she's gone
She said she's better off on her own
She turned her head
Much better off on her own

My girl knocked on the door
To the place I usually refer to as home
I died, shoelace untied
She looked in my eyes
Small and surprised

And God closed every gates
The moon fell into the lake

Boy she's gone adrift
She's better off on her own
She closed, then she left
Much better off on her own

Sitting naked by the window sill
Watching cars upon the hill
Am I sleeping? I was dreaming
For just a moment time stood still
Hey!

(Better off on her own)
(Better off on her own)

Now she's gone (Better off on her own), she said
(She's better off on her own) She's better off on her own
(Better off on her own) She turned her head (She's better off on her own)
Much better off on her own

She's gone, (Better of on her own) she sighed
(She's better off on her own) She's better off on her own
The tears I cry (Better off on her own)
(She's better off on her own) Much better off on her own

My girl came home to me
Just the other day
