Better On My Own Lyrics

I only lie when I think of your face

Tell myself I'm fine, but there's no escape

The scars you left still scream your name

But tonight I'm done with playing your game

You kept me bound, blind to the truth

Now tearing down the walls of you

I'll say you didn't break me

Say I'm better on my own

But deep inside I'm burning

From the nights I stood alone

You tried to leave me hollow

But your fire forged my soul

So I'll say you didn't break me

I'm better on my own

I only cry when the memories sting

You stole my voice, but I learned to sing

Every tear feeds the blaze tonight

I'll rise again and leave your shadow behind

You kept me bound, blind to the truth

Now tearing down the walls of you

I'll say you didn't break me

Say I'm better on my own

But deep inside I'm burning

From the nights I stood alone

You tried to leave me hollow

But your fire forged my soul

So I'll say you didn't break me

I'm better on my own

Your lies, your chains, your twisted game

Left me crawling in the rain

But I'm rising, yeah I'm rising

And you'll never see me fall again

I'll say you didn't break me

Say I'm better on my own

Now the fire's in my veins

And I'm stronger than you've known

You tried to leave me hollow

But I built myself a throne

So I'll say you didn't break me

I'm better on my own

Yeah, I'm better on my own

Stronger than you'll ever know
