For The Better

[Verse 1]
So it ends the same way it always does and
I'm left alone with a broken heart and
It's not fair, I've walked alone too many times
I can't take the silence anymore

[Pre-Chorus]
To end this way a promise made
Despite myself I wish you'd stayed

[Chorus]
So run away, it's all the same
You cast a spell to get her
Another day, so far away
You'll see that it's for the better

[Post-Chorus]
And I can't fix you
And I can't fix you now

[Verse 2]
You act as if this is all my fault and
I can't believe you think I'd forgot that
You lied, spied, and tried to take me for a fool
Now I see you for what you truly are

[Pre-Chorus]
It еnds with me, I couldn't see
Despite thе signs, I still believed

[Chorus]
So run away, it's all the same
You cast a spell to get her
Another day, so far away
You'll see that it's for the better
(You'll see that it's for the better)
(You'll see that it's for the better)
(You promised me)

[Breakdown]

[Verse 3]
Countless years have passed
Were we ever meant to last
Scrub the writing from the wall
Wid we stand a chance at all
Now the night fades into day
We'll be better off this way
In spite of all the things I said
I still wish that you had stayed
You are the smiling dark
The shadows lonely spark
Warm words whispered to me
Like blades they cut my heart
But I am open flame
I cannot be contained
No dark is deep enough
That flame can't wash away

[Outro]
To end this way a promise made
Despite myself I wish you'd stayed
