Better Off This Way
Embracing Change: A Journey of Self-Discovery in 'Better Off This Way'
Lyrics
I've been overthinking lately
The speaker has been excessively contemplating things recently.
Can never get outside my head
It's challenging for the speaker to escape their own thoughts.
Afraid to have that conversation
The speaker is hesitant to engage in a certain conversation.
So I'll just play it out instead
Instead of discussing, the speaker opts to act out the situation.
I can't get this off my mind
The speaker is preoccupied and can't stop thinking about something.
Reminded every time
Every instance serves as a reminder of how things used to be.
Of how it used to be
Reflection on past experiences and nostalgia.
How it used to be
Reiteration of how things used to be.
I've been stuck with all this pain
The speaker is burdened by emotional pain.
Nobody else to blame
No one else is responsible for the pain but the speaker.
But now I realize
The speaker comes to a realization about their situation.
That I'm better off this way
The speaker believes they are better off in the current state.
Da bua da ba ba ba da ba
Repetition or vocalization without specific meaning.
Da bua da ba ba ba da ba
-Da bua da ba ba ba da
-Da bua da ba da
-Da bua da ba ba
-This won't change my situation
The situation won't change, and the speaker accepts it.
I guess I'll take one for the team
The speaker is willing to endure difficulties for the greater good.
Oh oh oh oh yeah
An exclamation expressing a sense of realization.
I never thought that this could happen
The speaker didn't expect a particular event to occur.
But now I know why it was me
The speaker understands why they experienced a certain event.
'Cause I have everything I need
The speaker feels content with what they have.
I can't get this off my mind
The speaker continues to be haunted by certain thoughts.
Reminded every time
A persistent reminder of how things used to be.
Of how it used to be
Reflection on past experiences.
How it used to be
Recollection of how things used to be.
I've been stuck with all this pain
The speaker is enduring emotional pain.
Nobody else to blame
No external entity is blamed for the pain.
But now I realize
The speaker recognizes their current state and finds it beneficial.
That I'm better off this way
Reiteration of the belief that the current state is preferable.
Da bua da ba ba ba da ba
Repetition or vocalization without specific meaning.
Da bua da ba ba ba da ba
-Da bua da ba ba ba da
-Da bua da ba da
-Da bua da ba ba
-Da bua da ba ba ba da ba
-Da bua da ba ba ba da ba
-Da bua da ba ba ba da
-Da bua da ba da
-Da bua da ba ba
-I've learned the hard way
The speaker has gained wisdom through difficult experiences.
I'm not always in control
An acknowledgment that the speaker cannot control everything.
But I've come to realize
A realization that the speaker needs to release control.
That I need to let it go
The speaker believes they are in a better state now.
'Cause I am better off this
Repetition emphasizing the improved state.
I can't get this off my mind
The persistent thoughts remain in the speaker's mind.
Reminded every time
A recurring reminder of past experiences.
Of how it used to be
Reflection on how things used to be.
How it used to be
Recollection of past experiences.
I've been stuck with all this pain
Enduring emotional pain without external blame.
Nobody else to blame
No one else is responsible for the speaker's pain.
But now I realize
The speaker acknowledges their improved state.
That I'm better off this way
