Verse

                
I understand your point of view
                                            
Letting me go but I thought you had more faith
              
Everything I've done for you
                                                
You made the mistakes and now you throw this in my face
                
And I have worked so hard for you
                             
All of this time and you cast me aside
                            
I understand your point of view

Chorus

                         
But I can't seem to get my head around
                         
All the things that I feel good about
                  
Always seem to disappear
                                  
And everytime I think I've got this all worked out
                        
Something chews me up and spits me out
                          
But there's nothing left to fear
                  
I'm better alone my dear.

Verse

                               
You couldn't pick a better time to give me the news
                            
Why don't you kick me when I'm down?
         
I'd always believed in you
                                      
Defended your name but you have not been true
            
I gave you so much of my life 
                             
I've compromised and you tell me goodbye
                            
You couldn't pick a better time

Chorus

                         
And I can't seem to get my head around
                         
All the things that I feel good about
                  
Always seem to disappear
                                   
And every time I think I've got this all worked out
                        
Something chews me up and spits me out
                          
But there's nothing left to fear
                  
I'm better alone my dear

                                              
I know I really should thank you for setting me free
                                              
It's really amazing the changes I'm starting to feel
                    
It's not gonna be long, till I'm fit and strong
                  
Deliverance helped me heal
                  
Still I wonder if you ever wish you still had me

                 
Will I ever get my head around
                         
All the things that I feel good about 
                       
That always seems to disappear
                                    
When every time I think I've got this all worked out
                        
Something chews me up and spits me out
                          
But there's nothing left to fear

No No No

                     
I can't seem to get my head around
                         
All the things that I feel good about 
                       
That always seems to disappear

No No

                                   
And every time I think I've got this figured out
                         
Something screws me up and drags me down
                          
But there's nothing left to fear
                
I'm better alone my dear
