Better Broken

Maybe if I catch my breath
Maybe if I wait a little
I remember how it hurts
And stop for a fall
I'd forget to come apart
And catch myself and hold on tightly
Let memory wash over me
Forgive but don't forget

So you come back to me begging
"Why'd you leave? Tell me why
How could you let this go?"

Let it be all it is, small and still
A memory like a stone
A jagged edge made smooth by tide
Let it be all it is, small and still
And better left alone
Some things are better broken
Some things are better broken

Illusions come, but venom stays
A swirling vision, soft and perfect
But blur all the edges
'Til everything's fine
So I'll pretend I didn't cry
You pretend that you're my savior
We both remember what we want
To get us through the night

So don't come back to me begging
"Why'd you leave, tell me why
How could you let this go?"

Let it be all it is, small and still
A memory like a stone
A jagged edge made smooth by time
Let it be, all it is, small and still
I'm better left alone
Some things are better broken
Some things are better broken

Let it be all it is, small and still
A memory like a stone
A jagged edge made smooth by time
Let it be all it is, small and still
A memory like a stone
Some things are better broken
Some things are better broken

Some things are better broken
Some things are better broken
