Lyrics: Lisa Brokop. Better Off Broken.

(Lisa Brokop/Ron Harbin/Cyril Ranson)

Single-sided conversations,
Too much time spent alone.
Even though my heart is breaking,
You don't even know.
Today, I was thinking 'bout us;
What I'd do without you.
I was lost in reflection,
When I found the truth.

Can't think of one reason,
To try to find a way to make this work.
Through crying, through denying.
Tired of pretending I don't hurt.
So, I've been thinking:
Maybe my heart's better off broken.

Sometimes staying is the easy way out.
But I can't ignore this pain.
Made up my mind to get it over with now,
'Cause you're not gonna change.


Can't think of one reason,
To try to find a way to make this work.
Through crying, through denying.
Tired of pretending I don't hurt.
So, I've been thinking:
Maybe my heart's better off broken.

Can't think of one reason,
To try to find a way to make this work.
I'm through crying, through denying.
Tired of pretending I don't hurt.
So, I've been thinking:
Maybe my heart's better off broken.

Better off broken.
