I tried to be perfect
But nothing was worth it
I donÂ’t believe it makes me real
IÂ’d thought itÂ’d be easy
But no on believes me
I meant all the things that I said
If you believe itÂ’s in my soul
IÂ’d say all the words that I know
Just to see if it would show
That I'm trying to let you know
That IÂ’m better off on my own
This place is so empty
My thoughts are so tempting
I donÂ’t know how it got so bad
Sometimes itÂ’s so crazy that nothing could save me
But itÂ’s the only thing that I have
If you believe itÂ’s in my soul
IÂ’d say all the words that I know
Just to see if it would show
That I'm trying to let you know
That IÂ’m better off on my own
(On my own!)
I tried to be perfect
It just wasnÂ’t worth it
Nothing could ever be so wrong
ItÂ’s hard to believe me
It never gets easy
I guess I knew that all along
If you believe itÂ’s in my soul
IÂ’d say all the words that I know
Just to see if it would show
That I'm trying to let you know
That IÂ’m better off on my own
