Lyrics
I never gave a reason
I never provided an explanation
Of why I didn't call
For why I didn't make a phone call
Now I've grown so tired
Now, I've become exhausted
Of lying to myself
From deceiving myself
It cannot go unsaid
It must be acknowledged
I regret what they know
I feel remorse for what others are aware of
Don't think it's all been a waste of time
Don't believe it's all wasted time
Are you better off alone? Stop lying to yourself
Questioning if being alone is a better choice, urging honesty with oneself
I regret what was said I deny what they know
Expressing remorse for spoken words, denying known information
Are you better off alone?
Repeating the question of whether being alone is a preferable state
Those that we admired
Referring to those admired in the past
All stood their ground and cried
They maintained their position and expressed emotions
I didn't start the fire
Claiming innocence in causing a disturbance
I just tried to see your eyes
Attempting to understand another person's perspective
It cannot go unsaid
It must be acknowledged
I only want you to know
Desiring the recipient to be aware
I think it's all going to
Optimistic view that things will eventually be fine
Work out fine
(No specific meaning provided in the lyrics)
Are we Better Off Alone (you better off alone?)
Pondering if it's better to be alone
Than lying to ourselves
Than deceiving oneself
Who cares what they've said?
Expressing indifference towards others' opinions
Who cares what they know?
Disregarding what others are aware of
Are we better off alone
Questioning if being alone is a better option
I know that my love I'll send
Assuring the transmission of love
Could we still be friends?
Asking if friendship is still possible
But this is the end
Indicating the end of a relationship
I think it's all going to work out fine
Optimistic belief that everything will be fine
We're better off alone (You better off alone)
Reiterating the idea of being better off alone
Than lying to ourselves
Than deceiving oneself
I regret what you say
Feeling regret for spoken words
I don't care what I know
Not concerned with personal knowledge
Don't say it's all been a waste of time
Denying that everything was a waste of time
Are you better off alone (send my love)
Questioning if the person is better off alone
Stop lying to yourself (send my love)
Encouraging honesty with oneself
It cannot go unsaid (send my love)
It must be acknowledged
I only want you to know (to yooou)
Desiring the recipient to be aware
It cannot go unsaid,
It must be acknowledged
I only want you to know,
Desiring the recipient to be aware
I think it's all going to work out fine.
Optimistic belief that everything will be fine
