you can try if you like to win
but sometimes love is dealt the worst of all other hands
and then what will you know when all you try seems to fail
but sink your head into your hands and hope its strength prevails
and maybe it will
your words might be strong enough but words will fail
and maybe it can
just know we all fall the same
it's hard to pretend
that you're better off
yeah you’re better off alone
you can hope in what you always have
that your arms will be tight enough to keep it off the ground
but then what will you know when love it slips through your grip
but sink your knees into the ground and pray for it to fight and win
and maybe it will
your arms might be strong enough but strength will fail
and maybe it can
just know we all love and lose it's hard to consent
that you’re better off
yeah you’re better off alone
and maybe it will
your love might be just enough to no longer pretend
that you're better off
yeah you’re better off alone
