Am I better off dead?Am I better off a quitter?They say I'm better off nowThan I ever was with him
As they take me to my localDown the street
I'm smiling but I'm dying
Trying not to drag my feet
They say a few drinks will help me to forget him
But after one too many I know that I'm neverOnly they can see where this is gonna endBut they all think I'm crazy but to me it's perfect sense
And my mates are all there trying to calm me down'Cause I'm shouting your name all over the townI'm swearing if I go there nowI can change your mind, turn it all around
I now that I'm drunk but I see the worst
If he'll listen this time even though this lust
I'll dial his number and confess to him
I'm still in love but all I heard was nothing
So I stumble there, along the railings and the fencesI know I'm with him face to face, that he'll come to his sensesEvery drunk stand by tend leads me to his doorIf he sees how much I'm hurting, he'll take me back for sure
And my mates are all there trying to calm me down'Cause I'm shouting your name all over the townI'm swearing if I go there nowI can change your mind, turn it all around
And I now that I'm drunk but I see the worstIf he'll listen this time even though this lustI'll dial his number and confess to himI'm still in love but all I heard was nothing
he said nothingOh, I wanted words but all I heard was nothingOh, I got nothing, oh, I got nothingOh, I wanted words but all I heard was nothing
Ohh, sometimes love's intoxicatingOhh, you're coming down, your hands are shakingWhen you realize there's no one waiting
Am I better off dead?Am I better off a quitter?They say I'm better off nowThen I ever was with him
And my mates are all there trying to calm me down'Cause I'm shouting your name all over the townI'm swearing if I go there nowI can change your mind, turn it all around
And I now that I'm drunk but I see the worstIf he'll listen this time even though this lustI'll dial his number and confess to himI'm still in love but all I heard was nothing
he said nothingOh, I wanted words but all I heard was nothingOh, I got nothing, I got nothingI wanted words but all I heard was nothing
Oh, I got nothingI got nothing, I got nothing, I got nothing
