Better As A Memory

I Move on like a sinner's prayer Lettin' go like a levee brakes Walk away as if I don’t care Learn to shoulder my mistakes I'm built to fade like your favorite song Get reckless when there’s no need Laugh as your stories ramble on Break my heart, but it won’t bleed My only friends are pirates It’s just who I am I’m better as a memory Than as your man Never sure when the truth won’t do I'm pretty good on a lonely night I move on the way the storm blows through I never stay but then again I might I struggle sometimes to find the words Always sure until I doubt Walk a line until it blurs Build walls too high to clime out But I'M HONEST TO A FAULT It’s just who I am I'm better as a memory Than as you man I see you leaning You’re bound to fall I don’t want to be that mistake I’m just a dreamer Nothing more You should know it before it gets too late 'Cause Goodbyes are like a ROULETTE wheel You never know where they're gonna land First you’re spinning then your standin' still Left holdin' A losing hand One day your gonna find someone Right away you'll know it’s true That all of your seekin's done It’s just a part of the pa*sing through Right there in that moment You'll finally understand That I was better as a memory than as your man Better as a memory than as your man
