Song lyrics

I never knew perfection til
I heard you speak, and now it kills me
Just to hear you say the simple things
Now waking up is hard to do
And sleeping's impossible too
Everything's reminding me of you
What can I do?

[Chorus:]
It's not right, not OK
To say the words that you say
"Maybe we're better off this way?"
I'm not fine, I'm in pain
It's harder everyday
"Maybe we're better off this way?
It's better that we break..."

A fool to let you slip away
I chase you just to hear you say
You're scared and that you think that I'm insane
The city look so nice from here
Pity I can't see it clearly
While you're standing there, it disappears
It disappears

[Chorus]

Saw you sitting all alone
You're fragile and you're cold,
but that's all right
Life these days is getting rough
They've knocked you down and beat you up
But it's just a rollercoaster anyway, yeah

[Chorus x2]



Better That We Break

I never knew perfection 'til
I heard you speak and now it kills me
Just to hear you say the simple things.
Now breaking up is hard to do,
And sleeping's impossible too.
Everything's reminding me of you,
what can I do?

It's not right, not okay,
Say the words that you say,
Maybe we're better off this way.
I'm not fine, I'm in pain...
It's harder every day...
Maybe we're better off this way,
Maybe it's better that we break.

A fool to let you slip away,
I chase you just to hear you say
You're scared and that you think that I'm insane.
The city looks so nice from here,
Pity, I can't see it clearly,
While you're standing there it disappears,
It disappears.

It's not right, not okay,
Say the words that you say,
Maybe we're better off this way.
I'm not fine, I'm in pain...
It's harder every day...
Maybe we're better off this way,
Maybe it's better that we break up.

Saw you sitting all alone,
You're fragile and you're cold,
But that's alright.
Life these days is getting rough,
They've knocked you down, and beat you up...
But it's just a roller coaster anyway...

It's not right, not okay,
Say the words that you say,
Maybe we're better off this way.
I'm not fine, I'm in pain...
It's harder every day...
Maybe we're better off this way.

It's not right, not okay,
Say the words that you say,
Maybe we're better off this way.
I'm not fine, I'm in pain...
It's harder every day...
Maybe we're better off this way,
Maybe it's better that we break, baby.
