[Verse 1] I've been dodging the question for too long I see you sitting there What are you running away from? How long can you stand on a broken branch Before it falls Leaving won't fix your problems [Pre-Chorus] I hate to say I told you so Turns out I came undone You're not the only one I hate to say I told you so Turns out we're broken and careless [Chorus] You'll get by while I get better Don't hold on cause I'll hold you back When there's hope in what I say You always turn away You'll get by while I get better (While I get better) [Verse 2] You really shouldn't have left here in the first place When are you coming back? I set myself up to break down A broken heart makes you seem weak And far from feeling happy (What are you running away from?) [Pre-Chorus] I hate to say I told you so Turns out I came undone You're not the only one [Chorus] You'll get by while I get better Don't hold on cause I'll hold you back When there's hope in what I say You always turn away You'll get by while I get better (While I get better) [Bridge] Forgetful apologies Over and over Forgetful apologies Over and over [Pre-Chorus] I hate to say I told you so Turns out we're broken and careless [Outro Chorus] You'll get by while I get better Don't hold on cause I'll hold you back When there's hope in what I say You always turn away You'll get by while I get better Don't hold on cause I'll hold you back When there's hope in what I say You always turn away You'll get by while I get better (While I get better)
