Better Off Dead

Lyrics:

I’m slowly losing my mind,
Playing all the time.
But the game she plays ain’t funny,
And love has me blind.
There’s too much in her head
But I think she understands,
That I’ll never understand.


I’d rather die, than let her go.
It’s the hope that drives you mad.


I’m Better Off Dead,
I’m wasted off my head.
Maybe I should die instead
Of wasting all this air.
I’m Better Off Dead, oh
I will just cry again,
When she goes away,
And she doesn’t come back home.


She threw away the key,
After she locked down my heart.
She had me from the start,
The moment she was in my arms.
And the world would disappear,
When she was near,
But now I doubt she’ll appear.


I’d rather die, than let her go.
It’s the hope that drives you mad.


I’m Better Off Dead,
I’m wasted off my head.
Maybe I should die instead
Of wasting all this air.
I’m Better Off Dead, oh
I will just cry again,
When she goes away,
And she doesn’t come back home.


I’d rather die than let her go,
Hope is my only hope


I’m Better Off Dead,
I’m wasted off my head.
Maybe I should die instead
Of wasting all this air.
I’m Better Off Dead, oh
I will just cry again,
When she goes away,
And she doesn’t come back home.


I’m Better Off Dead,
I’m wasted off my head.
Maybe I should die instead
Of wasting all this air.
I’m Better Off Dead, oh
I will just cry again,
When she goes away,
And she doesn’t come back home.


I’m Better Off Dead.
I’m Better Off Dead.
I’m Better Off Dead.
I’m Better Off Dead.
