Better Off Without You


You say you don't like me anymore..
You say you don't trust me....
To think you'd throw everything we built away..
Over some he say she say...
That's so you baby.../

I'm tired of being Captain Save a ho..
I'm tired of having my emotions on
a roller coaster of highs and crazy lows..
After everything I've done for you...
For you to walk away over something that wasn't
true...
That's so you baby../

But I'm better off without you...
and I don't miss the constant drama
you always seemed to attract...
My days and nights are peaceful now...
And I don't know why or how..
I never could make this move before?
I'm better off without you../

I helped you move your stuff in your new place..
The next week I saw you with another guy,
laughing in my face...
He soon broke your heart and you were calling me..
Had me up all night pondering how he could set a girl
as fine as you free...
That was so like you baby../

You invited me to a dinner for two...
I thought it was going to be just me
and of course you...
but one and three added up to four..
and you were on your Blackberry inviting
just one more...
This was so like you girl.....
So like you girl...


I'm better off without you...
and I don't miss the constant drama
you always seemed to attract...
My days and nights are peaceful now...
And I don't know why or how..
I never could make this move before?
I'm better off without you../

And I don't miss you at all
Don't miss you at all...
That's why I don't text or call..
Not begging you to please let me stay..
No, I don't get down that way...
I'm more relieved than anything..../


I'm better off without you...
and I don't miss the constant drama
you always seemed to attract...
My days and nights are peaceful now...
And I don't know why or how..
I never could make this move before?
I'm better off without you../



bye bye baby....so long...baby!

Was this personal? It seemed too close to home to just be made up!
