Better Now
Breaking Free: A Journey to Independence
Lyrics
I feel you breathing down my neck when I want space
I feel suffocated by your presence when I need some personal space
I told you how I feel, but nothing changed
I communicated my emotions, but there was no change in the situation
Am I wrong? Am I wrong?
Questioning whether my feelings or actions are incorrect
You can wrap your arms around me that's okay
You can embrace me, but don't cross certain boundaries with your touch
But when your hands run down my back don't pass my ways
Respecting boundaries - don't touch me in a way that makes me uncomfortable
No more anymore
No longer willing to tolerate certain actions
You're giving me the wrong attention
You're giving me attention that I don't want or appreciate
For once I need you to listen
Asking for understanding and attentive listening from the other person
I'm not your object of affection
Rejecting being treated as an object of someone's affection or desire
No more anymore
Refusing to accept certain behaviors anymore
I think it's better now, better now, I go (I go)
Feeling that the situation is improved or resolved now
I'm better off, I'm better off alone (alone)
Realizing that being alone is better for personal well-being
It's time to grab my shit and leave
Deciding to take control and leave, leaving behind responsibilities
You clean this mess up after me
Not willing to clean up the mess or fix the situation left behind
It's better now, better now, I go alone
Feeling that it's better to be alone now
We're running now with nothing left to say
(Repeated verses/chorus with no additional distinct meaning)
Used to talk for hours, nowadays
-All the time we spending is a waste
-Want no more anymore
-You're giving me the wrong attention
-For once I need you to listen
-I'm not your object of affection
-No more anymore
-I think it's better now, better now, I go (I go)
-I'm better off, I'm better off alone (alone)
-It's time to grab my shit and leave
-You clean this mess up after me
-It's better now, better now, I go alone
-Oh, oh, yeah
-No, no
-Oh if you're waiting to see me cry
-You'll be waiting your whole life
-I'm not gonna change my mind
-Not this time, not this time
-Oh if you're waiting to see me cry
-Honey, you'll be waiting your life
-Trust me I'm not gonna change my mind
-Not this time, not this time
-No
-It's better now, better now, I go
-I'm better off, I'm better off alone
-It's time to grab my shit and leave
-You clean this mess up after me
-It's better now, better now, I go alone
-No, no, no, no, no, no, no
-Oh, hey
-It's better now, better now, I go alone
