Leavin's hard... trust me, it's really bad
It'll shake ya, damn near break ya, it always has
You don't go until you're prayin' to break even
Until stayin's worse than leavin'

God knows we tried everything that we could do
You can keep your pride and blame me if you need to
Even though this freedom feels a lot like treason
I know stayin's worse than leavin'

It's gotta get better, it can't get worse
Hope it's a blessing not a curse
I don't care who passes judgement on my reasons
I know stayin's worse than leavin'

It's gotta get better, it can't get worse
Hope it's a blessing not a curse
I don't care who passes judgement on my reasons
I know stayin's worse than leavin'

Both our hearts let go a long time ago
Words leave scars and Lord knows they heal slow
Our love died, but somehow we are both still breathin'
I just hope someday we'll look back on this grievin'
And say stayin's worse than leavin'
Yeah, that stayin's worse than leavin'
Yeah, that stayin's worse than leavin'
