Verse 1
I gave you everything, still you wanted me numb
Quiet and compliant, a shadow you could love
Pills in my system, locked deep inside my head
You smiled at the silence while I was already dead
Verse 2
You shut down when I broke, left me drowning alone
Said nothing when I begged, just turned your heart to stone
I walked out in the rain, no fight left in your eyes
Your hollow sorrys faded into the grey skies
Pre-Chorus
You wanted me quiet… quiet… quiet…
I wanted to scream
Chorus
I’m better off without you, tearing through the night
No more chains around my mind, no more living half alive
You liked the broken version, the one who couldn’t fight
But I shattered every bottle and I’m burning back to life
Andonis… I’m letting you go…
Wide awake and finally breathing on my own
Verse 3
Every promise you broke still echoes in my veins
Every time you pulled away, I carried all the pain
I asked for the end and the silence set me free
Now the fire’s rising where your shadow used to be
Bridge
I don’t hate you, I just refuse to disappear
Pity the man who needs his woman numb to feel near
I lost myself for years, but she’s screaming to be heard
Stronger, louder, finally unafraid
Chorus
I’m better off without you, tearing through the night
No more chains around my mind, no more living half alive
You liked the broken version, the one who couldn’t fight
But I shattered every bottle and I’m burning back to life
Andonis… I’m letting you go…
Wide awake and finally breathing on my own
Outro
Better off… better off…
Wide awake… in the grey…
Better off… without you…
I’m still burning… without you…
