I understand your point of view
Letting me go but I thought you had more faith
Everything I've done for you
You made the mistakes and now you throw this in my face
And I have worked so hard for you
All of this time and you cast me aside
I understand your point of view
But I can't seem to get my head around
All the things that I feel good about
Always seem to disappear
And everytime I think I've got this all worked out
Something chews me up and spits me out
But there's nothing left to fear
I'm better alone my dear.
You couldn't pick a better time to give me the news
Why don't you kick me when I'm down?
I'd always believed in you
Defended your name but you have not been true
I gave you so much of my life
I've compromised and you tell me goodbye
You couldn't pick a better time
And I can't seem to get my head around
All the things that I feel good about
Always seem to disappear
And every time I think I've got this all worked out
Something chews me up and spits me out
But there's nothing left to fear
I'm better alone my dear
I know I really should thank you for setting me free
It's really amazing the changes I'm starting to feel
It's not gonna be long, till I'm fit and strong
Deliverance helped me heal
Still I wonder if you ever wish you still had me
Will I ever get my head around
All the things that I feel good about
That always seems to disappear
When every time I think I've got this all worked out
Something chews me up and spits me out
But there's nothing left to fear
No No No
I can't seem to get my head around
All the things that I feel good about
That always seems to disappear
No No
And every time I think I've got this figured out
Something screws me up and drags me down
But there's nothing left to fear
I'm better alone my dear
