The Katherines – Better Off Now lyrics

[Verse 1: The Katherines & Frederick]
Untie my hands, getting off the track
Gave my life for love and I just got it back
And though I tried I know that I was never quite your archetype
Just a fix to get you through the night
Shaking off the dust, getting on my feet
Gave my life for love but I can't compete
And though at first I thought that I had lost a pending paradise
Turns out, it was never in sight
​
[Chorus: The Katherines, Frederick & both]
Can't break my heart, break my heart
There's nothing more that we can do
Right from the start, from the start
Was better off then on with you
Seems so clear, if you could only see me here
I'm better off now than I ever was with you
I'm better off now than I ever was with you
​
[Verse 3: Frederick & The Katherines]
Maybe you were young, maybe I am weak
I was always here but you were blind to me
I saw the same indifference
The constant passive arguments
And now, I’ve never felt so free
​
[Chorus: The Katherines, Frederick & both]
Can't break my heart, break my heart
There's nothing more that we can do
Right from the start, from the start
Was better off then on with you
Seems so clear, if you could only see me here
I'm better off now than I ever was with you
I'm better off now than I ever was with you
​
[Chorus: both & The Katherines]
Wait, we fell in love with holograms we made
And all the while it’s always been too late
Took the blame for all of your mistakes
We’re better off, we’re better off this way
This way
​
[Chorus: The Katherines, Frederick & both]
Can't break my heart, break my heart
There's nothing more that we can do
Right from the start, from the start
Was better off then on with you
Seems so clear, if you could only see me here
I'm better off now than I ever was with you
I'm better off now than I ever was with you
I'm better off now than I ever was with you
