Empty (Better Off) Lyrics

I am so lost just thinking about the thought of us

You gave me so much love, but I wonder if it was only lust

And I still can't believe that you'd say all those

hateful things and blame it all on me

Please, can you stop calling me?

I begged you to stay

And I felt all the pain when you left me

Empty

I tried moving on, but it's not the same wrapped in her arms

And you seem to be just fine

I guess your rebound treats you right

Please, can you stop calling me?

I begged you to stay

And I felt so ashamed til you left me

Empty

As soon as you were gone

I thought I was so cool

I'm the one they all talked about

But I peaked in high school

My friends drink to get drunk

I wanna drink to feel numb

I put on some weight

I keep making mistakes

And it's not the same

Please, can my mind let me be?

I've done all I can to be a better man

But you still left me

Empty

You said I'm better off without you, but I find that hard to be true

Don't know what else I can do

I know it's getting late for a relationship or a first date with you

Knowing you're leaving soon

I wish we could give it a try instead of giving up what might be right this time

But I can't change your mind

So I'll do what I do the best I'll hide away and leave you to rest and find

Something more down the line
