Better Off

(album: What Do They Know - 2021)

I feel better on a barstool
Drinking my way
Through a bottle of something
You never let me drink
I feel better on a Friday night
Betting on a five round fight
I feel better on the west coast
With a couple of friends
Getting my mind off what could've been
And how so good got so gone
But what if I got it all wrong?

And what if I was better off 'til I tore out of your driveway?
Broken by those second thoughts when I hit it for that highway
What if I realize that I don't know what the hell I'm gonna do?
If it turns out I was better off with you

What if I called you
And you didn't pick up?
What if I was sorry?
But it wasn't enough
What if I do whatever it takes?
What if it's too late?

What if I was better off 'til I tore out of your driveway?
Broken by those second thoughts when I hit it for that highway
What if I realize that I don't know what the hell I'm gonna do?
If it turns out I was better off with you
What if I was better off 'til I tore out of your driveway?
Broken by those second thoughts when I hit it for that highway
What if I realize that I don't know what the hell I'm gonna do?
If it turns out I was better off with you

Wrapped up in my arms
Holding onto
Your hand, it turns out
I was better off with you
I was better off with you
