I'm Better Without You


You left me all alone,

In the dark, you did,

I've been lost in a void,

Ever since I was born!

 

Why have you done this to me?

Left me all alone to fend for myself?!

What made you think I didn't need you?!

I loved you,

I needed you,

But you weren't there!

 

I was bullied and teased,

But you were never there to help,

You were never there!

 

I was called names,

Was pushed around,

Where were you!?

 

WHERE WERE YOU!?

 

Why have you done this to me!?

Left me all alone to fend for myself?!

What made you think I didn't need you?!

I loved you,

I needed you,

But you weren't there!

 

I hope those bottles gave you company,

Since I was never enough!

All I have to remember you by are the scars

I have from your beatings!

 

I was never a good kid,

You told me.

Always got on your nerves,

I remember those words!

 

Why have you done this to me?

Left me all alone to fend for myself?!

What made you think I didn't need you?!

I loved you,

I needed you,

But you weren't there!

 

I regret the things I did because of you!

The scars on my arms remind me of you,

Don't worry,

I'm not scared of you anymore!

I'VE FORGOTTEN ALL ABOUT YOU!

 

I've forgotten all about you, (Yeah, yeah)

You don't run my life anymore, (ooh)

I'm through with all your crap, (I'm through with you)

You can't put me down,

I'm smarter than you! (You can't get me)

 

I can't look at the past,

But I can look at the future,

And it's better without you,

SO STAY OUT OF MY LIFE!

 

I know why you did this to me,

You left me alone to fend for myself,

But that's okay, 

I DON'T NEED YOU!

You know I needed you,

BUT I DON'T ANYMORE!

I DON'T NEED YOU!

 

STAY OUT OF MY LIFE!

 

I'M BETTER WITHOUT YOU!
