Better Off

(album: Autobiography - 2004)

The sky is falling
And it's early in the morning
But it's OK somehow
I spilt my coffee,
it went all over your clothes
I gotta wear mine now

And I'm always, always, always late
And my hair's a mess,
Even when it's straight

But so what,
I'm better off everyday
When I'm standing in the pouring rain, I don't mind
I think of you and everything's alright
I used to think i had it good
But now i know that i misunderstood
With you I'd say, I'm better off in every way

My friends keep calling
They say, they say I'm stalling
And they wanna meet you now
I tell them hell no,
i say we're trying to lay low
Don't wanna lose what I've found

Things are finally, finally looking up
Oh my feet are on the ground
Even though I'm stuck

But so what,
I'm better off everyday
When I'm standing in the pouring rain, I don't mind
I think of you and everything's alright
I used to think i had it good
But now i know that i misunderstood
With you I'd say, I'm better off in every way

Things are finally, finally looking up
Oh my feet are on the ground
Even though I'm stuck
Even though I'm stuck

But so what,
I'm better off everyday
When I'm standing in the pouring rain, I don't mind
I think of you and everything's alright
I used to think i had it good
But now i know that i misunderstood
With you I'd say, I'm better off in every way

Yeah, yeah

Better off in every way
I'm better off in every way
I'm better off today

The sky is falling
And it's early in the morning
But it's OK
