Better Broken

Maybe if I catch my breath

Maybe if I wait a little

I'd remember how it hurts and stop before I fall

I'd forget to come apart

I'd catch myself and hold on tightly

Let memory wash over me, forgive but don't forget

So you come back to me begging

"Why'd you leave? Tell me why, how could you let this go?"

Let it be all it is

Small and still, a memory like a stone

A jagged edge made smooth by time

Let it be all it is

Small and still and better left alone

Some things are better broken

Some things are better broken

Illusions come, the venom stings

Swirling visions, soft and perfect

They blur all the edges till everything looks fine

So I'll pretend I didn't cry

And you pretend that you're my savior

We both remember what we want to get us through the night

So don't come back to me begging

"Why'd you leave? Tell me why, how could you let this go?"

Let it be all it is

Small and still, a memory like a stone

A jagged edge made smooth by time

Let it be all it is

Small and still and better left alone

Some things are better broken

Some things are better broken

Let it be all it is

Small and still, a memory like a stone

A jagged edge made smooth by time

Let it be all it is

Small and still and better left alone

Some things are better broken

Some things are better broken

Some things are better broken

Some things are better broken
