lyrics

everybody looks better in the dark.
and i'm tryin', oh i'm tryin' to get back to where i was.
you could guess, but you'd probably have it wrong.
i'll keep denyin', it was my fault all along.

she_said_"no"_
and_i_probably_should_have_known_
"no_i_won't_'cause_i'm_better_off_alone_"
she_said_"no"_
and_i_guess_i_should_have_known_
"no_i_won't_'cause_i'm_better_off_on_my_own_"

oh, now i can't find the words
and i'm tryin', oh i'm tryin' to get by in this world.
you could guess, and you'd probably be right.
i'll keep denying, i left you there that night

she_said_"no"_
and_i_probably_should_have_known_
"no_i_won't_'cause_i'm_better_off_alone_"
she_said_"no"_
and_i_guess_i_should_have_known_
"no_i_won't_'cause_i'm_better_off_on_my_own_"

(...when part of you runs away.)
