Better Off Dead Lyrics - Madness - The Sleeping

She said she wants to end it all when she's all alone in her room 

She cries 

The way she feels inside is too much for her 

When all you got is these four walls 

It's not that hard to feel so small 

Or even exist at all 

How come no one heard her when she said 

Maybe I'm better off dead 

If I was would it finally be enough 

To shut out all those voices in my head? 

Maybe I'm better off dead 

Better off dead! 

Did you hear a word 

Hear a word I said? 

This is not where I belong 

You're gonna miss me when I'm gone 

Gone, gone 

This is not where I belong 

You're gonna miss me when I'm gone

She doesn't know she's beautiful 

Because no one's ever told her so 

And the demons that she has, are all she knows 

And maybe she can fall in love with someone in her life that she could trust 

And tell her she's enough (Have someone tell her she's enough?) 

How come no one heard her when she said 

Maybe I'm better off dead 

If I was would it finally be enough 

To shut out all those voices in my head? 

Maybe I'm better off dead 

Better off dead! 

Did you hear a word 

Hear a word I said? 

This is not where I belong 

You gonna miss me when I'm gone 

This is not where I belong 

You're gonna miss me when I'm gone

When all you got is these four walls 

It's not hard to feel so small 

When all you got is these four walls 

It's not hard to feel so small 

All she wanted was to be enough 

All she wanted was to be enough 

So what does it take? 

Maybe it's not too late 

Yeah no one heard her when she said 

Maybe I'm better off dead 

If I was would it finally be enough 

To shut out all those voices in my head? 

Maybe I'm better off dead 

Better off dead! 

Did you hear a word 

Hear a word I said? 

This is not where I belong 

You gonna miss me when I'm gone 

Gone, gone 

This is not where I belong 

You're gonna miss me when I'm gone 

Gone, gone 

This is not where I belong 

You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
