Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Early in the morning
I can see a thousand teardrops falling
I don’t wanna be here
Everything I feel just makes me crawling
[PreChorus]
I want that
We shut down the past
Enemies stay
And they drive you mad
I want that
We shut down the past
There‘s no other way
[Chorus]
You are, you are, you are
Better off here without me
You are, you are, you are better off
There’s no doubt about it
'Cause I don't wanna drag you down
I don’t wanna hurt you anymore
You are, you are, you are
Better off
[Verse 2]
I should better leave now
Everything I feel just makes me wonder
If I'm gonna break down
I don’t wanna hold it back no longer
[PreChorus]
I want that
We shut down the past
Enemies stay
And they drive you mad
I want that
We shut down the past
There‘s no other way
[Chorus]
You are, you are, you are
Better off here without me
You are, you are, you are better off
There's no doubt about it
'Cause I don't wanna drag you down
I don't wanna hurt you anymore
You are, you are, you are
Better off
[Outro]
You are, you are, you are
Better off here without me
You are, you are, you are better off
There's no doubt about it
