lyrics
Verse 1
I could be his friend, I could be his brother
I could be anyone, just not his lover
No more wasting time on the pain I feel
I've learned that scars don't make love real
Pre-Chorus
How much more must I break to finally see?
That being alone doesn’t mean I’m empty
Chorus
Better on my own, I’ve come to know
I don’t need anyone to make me whole
No more chasing shadows, no more endless fall
One is enough, and I’m standing tall
Better on my own, after all
Verse 2
I’ve spent too long fighting battles in my head
Loving him only left me torn and misled
Now I see the strength in walking alone
Sometimes the best love is the love you’ve grown
Pre-Chorus
How much more must I break to finally see?
That being alone doesn’t mean I’m empty
Chorus
Better on my own, I’ve come to know
I don’t need anyone to make me whole
No more chasing shadows, no more endless fall
One is enough, and I’m standing tall
Better on my own, after all
Bridge
I won’t settle for less, I’m no longer afraid
To face tomorrow without feeling betrayed
What’s lost is behind, now I can finally breathe
Being with me is all I ever need
Chorus
Better on my own, I’ve come to know
I don’t need anyone to make me whole
No more chasing shadows, no more endless fall
One is enough, and I’m standing tall
Better on my own, after all
Outro
One is enough, and I’m standing tall
Better on my own, after all
