BETTER OFF

My allergy used to be your words
They made my eyes sting they made them blur
Kept coming across the same old thing
That when push came to shove only one can win

I was falling
Only half of what I used to be
Almost everything
Got caught up in the memory

I'm trying to escape
Because I'm better off
Without the comfort that is keeping me immobilised
I'm trying to escape
Because I'm better off
I won't fall for the illusions
That keep taunting me

I often wonder why people choose to
Have opinions on everything I do
Speculating creating a conspiracy
And acting like I owe you something

I was falling
Only half of what I used to be
Now I'm growing so much more I can see

Why do I look back when I've come so far?
Because the picture's always prettier in the dark
Time to draw a new one with new eyes
I've reached my end and that's the best place to start

Falling only half of what I used to be
Arms wide open 'til the point of my delivery

Falling only half of what I used to be
Arms wide open 'til the point of my delivery
