Finally found a better way to, really help myself
After all those years I wasted, sitting on the shelf
You were gone and I was waiting, bracing for the call
Any time I had the chance to, I would drop it all

Now you’re gone (gone away to)
Say it’s only temporary
You’re gone (she’s gone away to)
It’s already January (so long)
I'm feeling tired lately (so long)
It’s been this way for way too long (so long)
It’s got me lonely baby (so long)
But I know I'm better off alone
Better off alone
Better off alone
Better off alone

Now I need another person, to make me do my chores
Really just another human, to slap me when I'm bored
I was young and sick of waiting, in line for someone else
Actin’ like it didn’t phase me, hopin’ you couldn’t tell

Now you’re gone (gone away to)
Say it’s only temporary
You’re gone (she’s gone away to) (she’s gone away)
Gone away too long (she’s gone away) (so long)
I'm feeling tired lately (so long)
It’s been this way for way too long (she’s gone away) (so long)
It’s got me lonely baby (so long)
But I know I'm better off alone
(I'm feeling tired lately)
Better off alone
(It’s been this way for way too long)
Better off alone
(It’s got me lonely baby)
Better off alone
