Four Chord Story - Your Misery Business Lyrics

The time had come for you to wish me well, but it's all the same to me
You made a choice with fear in mind, fueled by memories
You chose to walk this path alone, thinking you would know the way
But I've been the one who laid the stones that you're walking on today

You think you're better off alone
Lost in fields that I have sown
Now, I can't fix all that you've known
But misery's not better lived alone

I'm not here to be your burning flame, that guides you through the dark
'Cause lord knows that I have dropped my torch and the ashes have left their mark
I'm not asking you to bare your soul or put your faith in me
But I've closed enough doors in my life to know sometimes you need a second key

You think you're better off alone
Lost in fields that I have sown
Now, I can't fix all that you've known
But misery's not better lived alone

Not better lived alone
Not better lived alone
I'm not trying to save you dear, but please just listen to me clear
I've been alone when I have hurt, and it's a pain you can't avert
But there is one thing that I know, that there is strength when numbers grow
But you won't have me by your side, so I will watch your worlds collide

You think you're better off alone
Lost in fields that I have sown
Now, I can't fix all that you've known
But misery's not better lived alone
