I took a train to the other side of town and I held my head up as the rain came down
I took my time waiting for the sunrise and I held my breath for you for the last time
Why do you get so high getting me so low
I've never been better than being alone, now that you're gone
You were holding me back, holding me back
I've got to let you know that you're not all that
No I've never been stronger, I'm telling you off 'cause you're nothing that I want
Oh don't you know you're not the best thing I've ever loved and let go
Oooh you think you're too cool hot shot
I took a chance on falling like a fool, guess I should have known better when my daddy didn't like you
But I gave you the benefit, I gave you everything, anything that you could've needed
Now all you get from me is the coldest shoulder when you look me over like you know me but you don't
Never been better than being alone, now that you're gone
You were holding me back, holding me back
I've got to let you know that you're not all that
No I've never been stronger, I'm telling you off 'cause you're nothing that I want
Oh don't you know you're not the best thing I've ever loved and let go
Oooh you think you're too cool hot shot
Oooh but you're nothing that I want
You thought that my heart wouldn't beat without you, couldn't breathe without you, but I can finally see without you standing in my way
Never been better, and I don't want you back
You're not all that
Never been stronger I'm telling you off, you're nothing that I want
Oh don't you know, don't you know, don't you know
Never been better than being alone, now that you're gone
You were holding me back, holding me back
I've got to let you know that you're not all that
No I've never been stronger, I'm telling you off 'cause you're nothing that I want
Oh don't you know you're not the best thing I've ever loved and let go
Oooh you think you're too cool hot shot
Oooh but you're nothing that I want
Ooh you think you're too cool hot shot
Oooh no you're not all that
Flawless melodies, arrangements, and lyrics. Listen to Animal Flag, fall in love, and be one of the hipsters to know them before they're huge. Duh. Jessica Lynn
