Better Off Without

Patterson Hood

[Verse 1]
I'm better off without her holding me down
Driving me crazy when she's not around
Better off without pacing back and forth
Taste of ocean water leaves me wanting more

[Verse 2]
And if salt is what she craves, why am I so bitter?
She's so sweet, it rots my teeth every time I kiss her
And I'm better off in fifty ways
Why do I still miss her? Misty eyed and tossed about

[Chorus]
Thinking about things I'm better off without
Thinking about things I'm better off without

[Verse 3]
Guess I'm better off without all she was about
Her moods swing so violently, it's tough to stand my ground
So tough to stand around pacing back and forth
Lonely is awake, alone at four in the morning

[Verse 4]
While she's off to better things, better off without me
I would only hold her down until she stopped fighting
My skin is underneath her nails since she came unbound
Guess it's too late to turn around

[Chorus]
Thinking about things I'm better off without
Thinking about things I'm better off without
Thinking about things I'm better off without
