Lyrics:
I understand your point of view letting me go
But I thought you had more faith
Everything I’ve done for you
You made the mistakes and now you throw this in my face
And I have worked so hard for you all of this time and you cast me aside
I understand your point of view

But I can’t seem to get my head around
All the things that I feel good about always seem to disappear
And every time I think I’ve got this all worked out
Something chews me up and spits me out
But there’s nothing left to fear
I’m better alone my dear

You couldn't pick a better time to give me the news
Why don’t you kick me when I’m down?
I’d always believed in you
Defended your name but you have not been true
I gave you so much of my life I’ve compromised and you tell me goodbye
You couldn’t pick a better time

And I can’t seem to get my head around
All the things that I feel good about always seem to disappear
And every time I think I’ve got this all worked out
Something chews me up and spits me out
But there’s nothing left to fear
I’m better alone my dear

I know I really should thank you for setting me free
It’s really amazing the changes I’m starting to feel
It's not gonna be long till I’m fit and strong
Deliverance helped me heal still I wonder if you ever wish you still had me

Will I ever get my head around
All the things that I feel good about that always seem to disappear
When every time I think I’ve got this all worked out
Something chews me up and spits me out
But there’s nothing left to fear
No No No

I can’t seem to get my head around
All the things that I feel good about that always seem to disappear
No No

And every time I think I’ve got this figured out
Something screws me up and drags me down
But there’s nothing left to fear
I’m better alone my dear
