[Intro]
Yeah, yeah
Ayy, you know
[Verse 1]
I was lost in your eyes, now I’m lost in the dark
Every memory we made just leaves a mark
Thought we were forever, but forever don’t last
Now I’m looking back, just a shadow of our past
[Chorus]
I’m better off alone, I know it in my soul
But anger’s like a fire, it's taking its toll
You brought me up so high, now I’m crashing down low
I hate the way that I feel, but it’s better to let go
[Verse 2]
Late nights on the phone, now I’m scrolling through the texts
Every “I love you” feels like another hex
You wove your lies so sweet, wrapped around my heart
But the truth in your smile was tearing me apart
[Chorus]
I’m better off alone, I know it in my soul
But anger’s like a fire, it's taking its toll
You brought me up so high, now I’m crashing down low
I hate the way that I feel, but it’s better to let go
[Bridge]
Yeah, the memories haunt me, like ghosts in my mind
But I’m moving on, baby, leaving you behind
I’ll rise from the ashes, watch me take flight
You were my daydream, but now you’re just a night
[Verse 3]
I thought love was real, but you played your role
Now I'm reclaiming my heart, taking back control
Fighting through the rage, I’m learning to find peace
With every single tear, I’m getting my release
[Chorus]
I’m better off alone, I know it in my soul
But anger’s like a fire, it's taking its toll
You brought me up so high, now I’m crashing down low
I hate the way that I feel, but it’s better to let go
[Outro]
Yeah, I’m ready to heal, got my sights on the prize
Though the pain gets heavy, I can see through the lies
You thought I was weak, but I’m rising above
Finding strength in the heartbreak, I’m learning to love
