It's better to have silence than to hear your voice at all
It's better to be quiet and pretend that I'm alone
Oh it's better love if we all turn off our phones
Oh it's better love if we all turn off our phones
I remember when I had
That sweet tone for [Dm7]you
Hearing that simple ɾing was [Am7]like
Music that could bring down a singer
Tell me not to [C7]be [Am]a clinger
But your words were like [F]tɾuth
Like you [A7was [Am7]some kind of preacher
And I believed you
Every single blessing
Every lie
Elevated my [A]mind
But you [A7a temporary high
Like a giant in the sky
There you [A7go again
Sowing and [Bm]climbing
Putting me through obstacles and
Puzzles and [Bm]ɾhyming like
Jack be [Am]nimble
Jack be [Am]quick
Jack get the f*ck off that candle stick
This ain't no game
I don't want to [C7]play with you [A7no more
Because I'm gonna crush this saga
And let you [A7know the pain
Of your lore
It's better to [C7]have silence than to [C7]hear your voice at all,
it's better to [C7]be [Am]quiet and [Bm]pretend that I'm alone
Oh it's better love if we all [Em]turn off our ρhones
Oh it's better love if we all [Em]turn off our ρhones
It's better
Don't even want to [C7]talk to [C7]you
Always brining it back with some kind of
Excuse and [Bm]you [A7know it's fine
The first, second, and [Bm]third time
But I'm tired of false ɾeasons
You let all [Em]my [A]demons in
To feast on [C7]all [Em]my [A]grievances
You might as well block me
Because you [A7only talk to [C7]me
When convenience suits you
And it's a hell of an ugly suit on [C7]you
The ball's in your court
You don't have the balls to [C7]hit it back
And when the crowd stands up and [Bm]cheers
All I'm hearing is that
It's better to [C7]have silence than to [C7]hear your voice at all,
It's better to [C7]be [Am]quiet and [Bm]pretend that I'm alone
Oh it's better love if we all [Em]turn off our ρhones
Oh it's better love if we all [Em]turn off our ρhones
How do you [A7live your life and [Bm]still
Feel nothing for [Dm7]me
Promised notifications, conversations
All they are, are experimentations
You ain't no Pavlov and [Bm]I ain't your dog
Condition [C7]me with those
And send me back into [C7]withdrawals
Tuck me in
Fill me up
Keep me warm
And drain me out
With your silence
It's better to [C7]have silence than to [C7]hear your voice at all,
it's better to [C7]be [Am]quiet and [Bm]pretend that I'm alone
Oh it's better love if we all [Em]turn off our ρhones
Oh it's better love if we all [Em]turn off our ρhones
