lyrics

To all the people i was once with,
who look for money where the heart should lie,
“i think you’re better off without him”
we’d be fighting ’till the day we die.

and i know you’ll think i’m lying,
but i only want what’s best for you,
could be flying off the island,
could be learning what i never knew

costs a lot of pride to live
without you anymore….woahhhhh

Found out that fate lies in the hands of each of us,
we have to shape it to the dreams that we trust,
Don’t need no reason to be alone,
won’t find a heart inside an empty home,
cos if you cannot love yourself then who will….then who will

So put your money where your mouth is,
i left mine above the hallway door,
i returned to find it missing,
now i’m living on a neighbours floor,

So i’m having to explain myself,
acting like i’ll never need your help,
i'm looking for a purer hell,
once i’ve found my own rhythm.

costs a lot of pride to live
without you anymore….woahhhhh

Found out that fate lies in the hands of each of us,
we have to shape it to the dreams of our past,
Don’t need no reason to be alone,
won’t find a heart inside an empty home,
cos if you cannot love yourself then who will….then who will
cos if you cannot love yourself then who will….then who will
