you feel that every night

of your adult life's

been a night of denial and desertion

i know that in your mind

you share your bread and wine

with quitters and with forfeits



and now you're wondering why

your children don't have the time

a day for you anymore

you can't understand

you've brought it upon yourself



and really what did you expect?



leaving a single mother and two young children to fend

- for themselves

while you had your freedom and your career

and a business student, who would do

whatever you wanted her to do in bed



so if you must know

how i feel about you

the truth is i can do without you

i'm far better off when you're far away



let's set things straight

i despise your morals and your values

but it isn't you that i hate

though i less than appreciate

the way that you regale your friends

with tales of travel to sunny lands

while your childrens are going hungry

it's that kind of thing that

i don't appreciate at all



so if you must know

how i feel about you

the truth is i can do without you

i'm far better off when you're far away



i can't offer you an olive branch

the will must be your own

and though i know as well as anyone

that you're stuck in time

if you lay down your sword

i'd walk beside you again

but not before then

not before then

then and not a moment before



so if you must know

how i feel about you

the truth is i can do without you

i'm far better off when you're far away



so if you must know

how i feel about you

the truth is i can do without you

i'm far better off when you're far away



i'm far better off when you're far away

i'm far better off when you're far away

i'm far better off when you're far away

i'm far better off when you're far away
