Better Off Alone

By Aya





Better off . . .

Better off . . .

Better off alone



Hide the hurt inside

It was easier to lie

To smile instead of cry

To let the people stare and glance

I wanted loneliness and darkness

Come over me

No one here or there can see

The love that I need



I have a wall you cannot see

A wall I build every day and night

It helps me grow strong

So thick it won't fall

I'm better off alone than to be with you

You can try to reach, but you won't succeed

My emotions hide deep inside

Block my heart from outside

I don't need anyone

I'm better off alone



No soul to call my own

I was betrayed and left alone

My wings failed and broke down

With the help from you

Tears burning raindrops

Cooling fire burn my hopes and leave me cold

Happiness gone forever

The road leads to nowhere



Don't try to get through to me

I spent so long to make this wall

Nothing can stop me now

I know for sure

I'm better off alone

Only darkness

No forgiveness

Better off alone
