I move on like a sinners prayer Letting go like a levee breaks Walk away as if I don´t care Learn to shoulder my mistakes
I´m built to fade like your favorite song Getting reckless when there´s no need Laugh as your stories ramble on Break my heart, but it won´t bleed My only friends are pirates That´s just who I am I´m better as a memory than as your man
Never sure when the truth won´t do I´m pretty good on a lonely night I move on the way a storm blows through I never stay, but then again, I might I struggle sometimes to find the words Always sure until I doubt Walk a line until it blurs Build walls too high to climb out But I´m honest to a fault That´s just who I am
I´m better as a memory than as your man
I see you leaning, you´re bound to fall I don´t want to be that mistake I´m just a dreamer and nothing more You should know it before it gets too late
Cause goodbyes are like a roulette wheel You never know where they´re gonna land First you´re spinning, then you´re standing still Left holding a losing hand But one day you´re gonna find someone And right away you´ll know it´s true That all of your seeking´s done It was just a part of the passing through Right there in that moment you´ll finally understand
That I was better as a memory than as your man Better as a memory than as your man
