V1
Your velvet kisses
With the evening news
I took for granted
They would always be mine Now your updates
Warm someone else
My life is hell here
All By myself
V2
Mounting paper
And earth of sand
Without your love here
It's a desert land
So take your gardens
And take your stones
I don't need reminders
Of what once was home
Chorus:
No, the rain won't fall
And the gardens won't grow
I'm not gonna chase my tail
And wait for you at home
Oh this bleeding heart's
Gonna cast the last stone
Cause I know that I'm
Better off alone
V3
Told the neighbors
You went to jail
Asked the postman to forward your mail
Sprayed your perfume
And drove your benz
Parked her on the tracks to meet her end
Chorus:
No, the rain won't fall
And the gardens won't grow
I'm not gonna chase my tail
And wait for you at home
Oh this bleeding heart's
Gonna cast the last stone
Cause I know that I'm
Better off alone
Bridge:
Burn this house
To the ground
You made your choices I'll make my own
I'm better off...
Love for certain or
Not at all
I'm better off
I'm better off alone Better off
