Lyrics
Stand in the front but shut up till I tell you to go
And don't get caught up and pretend 'cause you're not in control
'Cause this is my world, little girl, you've been lost on your own
Just hating and waiting ain't save you the world
I'll do you a favor and save you if you sign on the line
Don't worry your pretty little head about the future, it's all fine
Whether you're wrong or you're right, doesn't matter, you're not up to the fight
Keeping my head down
'Cause they don't know what I know now
As embers fall to pieces
Our ashes twisting in the air
It makes me smile to know that
I'm better without you
Now look around and remember your friends if you can
Feeding the flames till there's no one to blame except your hands
Lost in your lies, be the price for their lives, you've gone mad
And there's no way out
'Cause we all know you're old now
As embers fall to pieces
Our ashes twisting in the air
It makes me smile to know that
I'm better without you
Not enough, not enough
Not enough to throw it all away
We'd still be falling
We're falling
Turn it up, turn it up
Never gonna shut me up again
Your time is over
It's over now
As embers fall to pieces
Our ashes twisting in the air
It makes me smile to know that
I'm, I'm better without you
