[Verse 1]
Maybe I'm better off
A little taller now you're gone
Writing words and they don't sting
But they don't mean half as much without you listening
[Pre-Chorus]
The crying at the piano
You're like stood in the shadows
When I try to soften my words
[Chorus 1]
Maybe we brought out the worst in each other
A million full stops on our skin
But baby the songs that I wrote as your other
Are the best I'll ever sing
'Cause they all go ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Like there was a choir in every line back then
'Cause they all go ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
And that was the best I'll ever sing
[Verse 2]
I don't see you at my shows
'Cause if you heard this, it would cut too close
Wish I could stop writing us, God knows I've tried
Every moment immortalized
[Pre-Chorus]
Crying at the piano
You're like stood in the shadows
When I try to soften my words
[Chorus 2]
Oh, maybe we brought out the worst in each other
A million full stops on our skin
But baby the songs that I wrote as your other
Are the best I'll ever sing
'Cause they were like ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Like there was a choir in every line back then
They all go ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
And that was the best I'll ever sing
[Bridge]
And when the curtain falls, I'll bury you again
Every lyric is a letter that I'll never send
A piece of me from when
[Chorus 3]
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
There was a choir in every line back then
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
And that was the best I'll ever sing
Maybe we brought out the worst in each other
A million full stops on our skin
But baby the songs that I wrote as your other
They're the best I'll ever sing
