[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
What am I to say? I'm all wrapped up in apathy
And I don't want to stay this way
There's nothing left to do, now that I am onto you
All I want to know is the truth
[Pre-Chorus]
And I don't want to go, but I feel like I should
Because I'm falling apart, and I might, and I, and I...
[Chorus]
How could you be the better part of me?
When we're only half of what we used to be today
Could you see this isn't what we need?
And I'm leaving all the pieces how they fell
So goodbye, farewell
[Verse 2]
What am I to say? I still remember everyday
And memories don't fade away
[Pre-Chorus]
And it all falls apart in the shadows of the past
It can seem to be so hard, but it's time the feelings pass
[Chorus]
How could you be the better part of me?
When we're only half of what we used to be today
Could you see this isn't what we need?
And I'm leaving all the pieces how they fell
So goodbye, farewell
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
And pull your triggers now, what you waiting for?
I stand accused myself, sometimes, I'm wrong
God help me
And here beneath my lie, what am I praying for?
I don't believe in hell, but I just might be there tonight...
[Chorus]
How could you be the better part of me?
When we're only half of what we used to be today
Could you see this isn't what we need?
And I'm leaving all the pieces how they fell
So goodbye, farewell
