Guess I thought it was over
When all I wanted was to leave this all behind
I thought I had composure
It's so hard to let you go
And now that I'm older
You think that I could tell every time it hurt
I shoulda known better than to chase the afterglow

Tell me why we been lost in the storm
I wish we could swallow our pride
Admit that we're built to break
Close the door and walk away

'Cause we're better apart, apart, apart
'Cause we're better apart, apart, apart
But every time you tell me that you changed your ways
Don't know if I can sit around and play your games
'Cause we're better apart, apart, apart

'Cause we're better apart
'Cause we're better apart
'Cause we're better apart
'Cause we're better apart

Guess I thought it was over
When I heard that you left with someone else
I thought I had closure, it's so hard to let you go
I wanna move forward
But when you come around, I lose myself
I shoulda known better, I'm afraid to be alone

Tell me why we been lost in the storm

I wish we could swallow our pride

Admit that we're built to break

Close the door and walk away

'Cause we're better apart, apart, apart
'Cause we're better apart, apart, apart
But every time you tell me that you changed your ways
Don't know if I can sit around and play your games
'Cause we're better apart, apart, apart

'Cause we're better apart
'Cause we're better apart
'Cause we're better apart (Better, better)
'Cause we're better apart (Better, better)
'Cause we're better apart
'Cause we're better, 'cause we're better
And now we're better
'Cause we're better apart
'Cause we're better, 'cause we're better apart
And now we're better
'Cause we're better apart
'Cause we're better apart
