[Verse 1]

I took a step outside

You said, "Don't be long"

What you didn't know

Is I'm not coming home

I never thought I was the type

To let love fade

But I'd rather leave than

Push you away

[Verse 2]

Something that I want

Can be found in you

I know it hurts

But it's the truth

You were my anchor

In the worst way

But I'd rather leave than

Push you away

[Chorus]

I'm sleeping better without you beside me

But I won't pretend like I don't miss you madly

I thought you knew me, now I know you don't

Maybe it took a fall to remember I float

[Verse 3]

Had to take a seat

Needed eye contact

But I wouldn't show

You already know

Focused on your phone

See in my eyes

That's when I

Took a step outside

[Chorus]

I'm sleeping better without you beside me

But I won't pretend like I don't miss you madly

I thought you knew me, now I know you don't

Maybe it took a fall to remember I float

[Bridge]

I can't see what is ahead

Honestly scared to death

I can't see what is ahead

I'm honestly scared to...

[Chorus]

I'm sleeping better without you beside me

But I won't pretend like I don't miss you madly

I thought you knew me, now I know you don't

Maybe it took a fall to remember I float
