Better Off
by Saint Nomad

Album: Nothing to Lose

Intro
Thought I'd be, thought I'd be
Thought I'd be, thought I'd be
A little better off

Verse 1
Wherever I 'go
The 'sun comes down 'on me, she said
How lucky can 'I be, she said

Your hand's full of gold
Can you fix my troubles too, she said
I need some luck from you, she said
Every move I make
Just takes me back
To where I can't go
Time out the window

Chorus
Everyday I look, I look a little bit older
Thought I'd have myself together
Thought I'd be a little better off
Every step I take, I get a little bit further
I've been walkin' on forever
Thought I'd be a little better off

Verse 2
Break open the doors
I'm suddenly aware of death
I saw my life with nothin' left

I'm holding the bones
My loveless baby looks at me
The ocean's in her eyes from underneath
I know dreams don't just float
They're buried in the water below
I'll go, I'm diving, can't breathe

Chorus
Everyday I look, I look a little bit older
Thought I'd have myself together
Thought I'd be a little better off
Every step I take, I get a little bit further
I've been walkin' on forever
Thought I'd be a little better off

Thought I'd be, thought I'd be
A little better off
Thought I'd be, thought I'd be
A little better off

Bridge
She said you're fine
Put your feet up next to mine
You just need a little time oh, oh
She said you're fine
It's just messin' with your mind
You just need a little time oh, oh

Chorus
Everyday I look, I look a little bit older
Thought I'd have myself together
Thought I'd be a little better off
Every step I take, I get a little bit further
I've been walkin' on forever
Thought I'd be a little better off

Thought I'd be, thought I'd be
A little better off
Thought I'd be, thought I'd be
A little better off
Thought I'd be, thought I'd be
A little better off
Thought I'd be, thought I'd be
A little better off
