There’s a hole about a mile wide
In the middle of my chest tonight
Right where my heart used to lie

And slowly beat me out of life

She asked me if I believed in God
Then she walked out of my arms
Some memories fade
And some just disappear

Maybe you were better off when you were dead
Maybe we were better off when you were dead
I loved you so much more when you weren’t here
Maybe you were better off when you were dead to me

Driving straight into the mountainside
Playing chicken with myself tonight
Mile after mile, getting nowhere soon
It seems to me if he was here, maybe God has left the room

Cause nothing has changed
And everything’s changed
I took my sweet time to mourn
And here we are back for more

Maybe you were better off when you were dead
Maybe we were better off when you were dead
I loved you so much more when you weren’t here
Maybe we were better off

Don’t get me wrong, I love it when I feel bad
Don’t get me wrong, its beautiful when I feel nothing
Not nothing all the time

And maybe we were better off when we were dead
Maybe we were better off when we were dead
I loved you so much more when you weren’t here
Maybe we were better off when you were dead to me
