Rue Snider - Loneliness Is Better Than Heartbreak
Loneliness is better than heartbreak
But tonight I've got heartbreak and I don't know what to do
Got a bottle of whiskey I know I shouldn't be drinking
But at the bottom is loneliness if I can just make it through
Loneliness is better than heartbreak
She left 17 seconds ago but it feels like it's been years
If I had asked her to stay what kind of man would that make me
Pleading with a woman whose intentions were clear
She didn't deserve all the things that I wanted to give her
She didn't believe that she'd ever be happy with one
She wanted to have her past and her present together
So I had to leave even though we weren't done
Loneliness is better than heartbreak
Heartbreak will get you to do things you shouldn't do
Like later I'll be trying to fuck every woman in Brooklyn
Then again when I'm lonely I pretty much just do that too
Loneliness is better than heartbreak
Well I've had them both so believe what I tell you is true
The only thing I've found that makes me feel any better
Ever at all
Is knowing that somewhere she's a bit heartbroken too
She didn't deserve all the things that I wanted to give her
She didn't believe that she'd ever be happy with one
She wanted to have her past and her present together
So I had to leave even though we weren't done
