Half Step Down

Intro

I tried to be perfect

 But nothing was worth it

 I don't believe it makes me real

 I thought it'd be easy

 But no one believes me

 I meant all the things I said

 If you believe it's in my soul

 I'd say all the words that I know

 Just to see if it would show

 That I'm trying to let you know

 That I'm better off on my own

Bridge

This place is so empty

 My thoughts are so tempting

 I don't know how it got so bad

 Sometimes it's so crazy

 That nothing can save me

 But it's the only thing that I have

 If you believe it's in my soul

 I'd say all the words that I know

 Just to see if it would show

 That I'm trying to let you know

 That I'm better off on my own

Bridge

I tried to be perfect

 It just wasn't worth it

 Nothing could ever be so wrong

 It's hard to believe me

 It never gets easy

 I guess I knew that all along

 If you believe it's in my soul

 I'd say all the words that I know

 Just to see if it would show

 That I'm trying to let you know

 That I'm better off on my own
