Better Off

Eyes open, slow motion

Outta bed, no kiss good morning

Wheels rolling down the driveway

Without a ring hand waving my way

It's another shade of gray

Another rainy day in paradise

No flowers on the counter

Just footsteps in and out of

These hallways and door frames

You stumble through in the midnight hours

While I'm on my knees and pray

"Lord, is there anything worth saving?"

I know we made a promise in sickness and in health

But I think God would rather watch us walk away than walk through hell

'Cause we did all our damage before death could do us part

For worse or for better off

Cold shoulder, cold arms

Barely beating broken hearts

Can't try to hold on to a flame dying in the dark

We already know we're gone

We don't have to say goodbye

It's too late, can't say we didn't try

I know we made a promise in sickness and in health

But I think God would rather watch us walk away than walk through hell

'Cause we did all our damage before death could do us part

For worse or for better off

(Oh, oh)

Too young to know

"To have to hold" can turn into two left hands letting go

I know we made a promise in sickness and in health

But I think God would rather watch us walk away than walk through hell

We did all our damage before death could do us part

For worse or for better off

For worse or for better off
