I don't mind if you treat me bad again
I don't care anymore
Life's too short to make trouble out of small things
It is better this way
I am sort of laid back today

I close my ears when words come flying out
I have heard them all before
Just a lot of hope flushing down the drain
It is better this way
I am going away

I've tried and then some more
Instead of dragging the both of us down
Divide, separate ways
It's never easy this way
It's never easy this way

My palms are sweating
I'm barely aware
Of what I'm turning down
It's all for life that is what I've been told
I think it's better this way
I will regret it one day

I've tried and then some more
Instead of dragging the both of us down
Divide, separate ways
It's never easy this way
It's never easy this way

Talk to me, throw the ball back
I've been here before, there is no turning back
Talk to me, just tell it like it is
Just two afraid souls
Going at each other, at each other

We're at the crossroads going separate ways
Time to say it as it is
And if we bump into each other one day
It will be better, then
Maybe we can start all over again

I've tried and then some more
Instead of dragging the both of us down
Divide, separate ways
It's never easy this way
It's never easy this way
