Better Off Today Lyrics - Singles - Satanic Surfers

It was on the tip of her tongue 

but she did not say a word 

Why did she sometimes take shit 

that she did not deserve? 

She wore a smile on her face 

as a disguise 

to hide the tears 

in her eyes 

And she just let the time go by

She'd turn away 

so that no one could see her sad 

Where had the love gone 

that they once had? 

She only cried 

when she was alone 

when her husband and the children 

were not home 

And she just let the years go by 

But one day she had enough 

packed her things 

went out the door 

I've seen the pictures 

of when she was young 

of the happy girl she was before 

She met the man of her dreams 

fell in love and suddenly 

she found herself in a situation 

she thought she'd never be 

Photos 

But I (I) 

I know that shes better off today 

All that time 

all those years 

So little joy 

and too many tears 

All the sacrifice 

that she had made for him 

all the things she'd given up 

just to please that man 

but now that she is on her own 

she can smile again 

just like the happy girl 

that she once was 

(she left a note 

for her husband at the phone 

it said: 

i hate your soul and I'm leaving on my own
