Better Without You

[Verse 1]
Empathy
Working on having a bit more empathy
The story’s so much deeper than what I can see
Listening before I open up to speak, enough of me
Recovery
January stripped away the best in me
Had to find the beauty in the rest of me
Picking up the pieces of what’s left of me, building a better me

[Chorus]
I don’t mean to think about you lately
But I do, but I do
I don’t wanna relive all these memories
Made with you, made with you
When you call me up to ask me back
I let it ring with tears held back
You don’t know me lately
I am better, better without you
Better without you

[Verse 2]
Delaware
All of this, it all comes back in Delaware
Our fortress made of cobblestone held secrets there
Falling in and out of love too hard to care
Something we’ll always share

[Chorus]
I don’t mean to think about you lately
But I do, but I do
I don’t wanna relive all these memories
Made with you, made with you
When you call me up to ask me back
I let it ring with tears held back
You don’t know me lately
I am better, better without you
Better without you
Better without you
Better without you

[Bridge]
I’ve had time to grow my friendships without you, without you
Invested in my music without you, without you
I’m playing New York City without you, without you
I’m seeing what the truth is without you, without you
You didn’t think it’d be forever without you, without you
But everyday keeps getting better

[Chorus 2]
I don’t mean to think about you lately
But I do (but I do) but I do (but I do)
I don’t wanna relive all these memories
Made with you (made with you) made with you (made with you)
When you call me up to ask me back
I let it ring, no turning back
You still think I’m crazy
About you (about you) about you (about you)
But you don’t know me lately
I am better, better without you
Better without you
