Didn't tell you I was cold
Cause you'd just say that it's my fault my jacket's at home
Never asked for little things
Cause I worried it would be too much and you would up and leave


Now that you've shown who you are
I can't believe I let it get this far


Better as strangers
We were a mess
Can't say the pain
Was all for the best
If I never met you
I'd still be alright
Wouldn't hurt so bad
Wouldn't know why
We're better as strangers
Oh
Better as strangers


Memories uncover lies
Should've took those stupid butterflies as the first warning signs
You tainted trust turned oceans black
Impending failure now I sit and wait for promises crack


Wish I'd never shown you my heart
Cause then you knew right where I would scar


Better as strangers
We were a mess
I can't say the pain
Was all for the best
If I never met you
I'd still be alright
Wouldn't hurt so bad
Wouldn't know why
We're better as strangers
Oh
Better as strangers
Oh


Sure I forgive you but know that it's only for me
Magic turned tragic broke your hold now I fully see


We're better as strangers
We were a mess
Can't say the pain
Was all for the best
If I never met you
I'd still be alright
Wouldn't hurt so bad
Wouldn't know why
We're better as strangers
Oh
Better as strangers
Oh
Better as strangers
