Better off Alone

My father gave me some advice He told me son you wont survive Unless you earn your dimes and take care of yourself My mother told me once or twice To watch my back because my vices come in swiftly If Im not careful they might kill me Do you understand the heartbreak you have caused me By trying to run my life in being scared So if you love me Why dont you trust me To do this on my own And if you need me Why'd you leave me I'm better off alone (better of alone) My friends come few and far between Since I've been living out my dream How can I trust them How can I trust them These days are long this time of year Tuned by all my guilt and fear About a future that will never even be here But do you understand the moments you have cost me By trying to run my life in being scared If you love me Why dont you trust me to do this on my own And if you need me Why'd you leave me I'm better off alone Sunday's coming But I'm not running Cause I've got all I need
