[Verse 1]
I spent the last year in suspension
Harrowed by the thought
Of opening my blinds
Letting go of lesser times
Now it's gone
You were better off...
[Verse 2]
Could you come and rest with me?
Even just for the moment?
And I don't think there's a point to this
To chasing momentary bliss
Feeling like I can't exist
Fuck the world, I will persist, I'm alive
(I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive...)
[Instrumental Chorus]
[Post-Chorus]
You were better off...
You were better off...
[Bridge]
Could you come and rеst with me?
Could you come and rest with mе?
Do you regret the cold?
That swallowed up your temple?
Swaying back and forth
Never quite on time
Never quite your tempo
But you keep to it anyway
Did you not learn to walk?
Before you learned to swim?
You're drowning out there, kid
You're never quite who we are
Maybe that's okay?
[Chorus 2]
We're better off ourselves
We're better off...
We're better off...
We're better off... (Ourselves)
We're better off ourselves
If I walk to the plank, the plan—
[Post-Chorus]
You were better off dreaming of the viaduct
You were better off dreaming of the viaduct
You...
[Chorus 3]
You were better off dreaming of the viaduct
You were better off dreaming of the viaduct
You were better off dreaming of the viaduct
You were better off dreaming of the viaduct
