Every time I turn around
I can not seem to find
Someone to dull the pain
All my efforts drowned in vain
If this glass is like my life
It's half empty in my eyes
A cold and empty place
Where what I love isn't safe
Don't trust me I'll only end up hurting you
You wanted to breathe
You wanted to see yourself through
Someone else's eyes
I pushed you away
Kept this mask on my face
And told you we're better of this way.
Every time I turn around
The man that I once was
Is gone without a trace
An empty shadow in my place
Where do we go when love is gone?
Without the strength to carry on
Is this what we hoped for all along?
I tried so hard to hide myself from you
You wanted to breathe
You wanted to see yourself through
Someone eles's eyes
I pushed you away
Kept this mask on my face
And told you we're better of this way.
When you open up your eyes
See through my disguise
And all the hurtful lies
When you wake up on your own
(one day you will wake up on your own)
Then you'll finally know
You're better off alone
You, you wanted to breathe
You wanted to see yourself through
Someone eles's eyes
But I, I pushed you away
Kept this mask on my face
And told you we're better of this way.
But you, you wanted to breathe
You wanted to see yourself through
Someone eles's eyes
But I, I pushed you away
Kept this mask on my face
And told you we're better of this way.
Better off this way
(better off this way)
