Verse 1
I hear it on the radio,
Everywhere I go
They tell me I'm a loser,
To be alone
The silver screen and Seventeen say I'm supposed to be
2 not 1 in a lifetime of afterglow

Don't wait
Don't wait
Hurry in to another mistake

Chorus
I'm taking my time
I know what I mean
I've made up my mind
Now I believe
It's better to be lonely
One look and I'm given out my number
One kiss and I'm calling you mine
Next thing I know we're going under
Why do I leave at misery
I think I believe
It's better to be lonely

Verse 2
They used to that say fools rush in
And I swear I've been
The fool that wanted someone else
To make me whole
And I don't mind hanging out with me,
I like the company
Someday I'll find someone who can move my soul

Til then
Til then
I'm not jumpin' in again

Chorus
I'm taking my time
I know what I mean
I've made up my mind
Now I believe
It's better to be lonely
One look and I'm given out my number
One kiss and I'm calling you mine
Next thing I know we're going under
Why do I leave at misery
I think I believe
It's better to be lonely
I'm not sayin' no one never
I just know there's something better yet
Hey...
Oh yeah,
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Don't wait
Don't wait
Hurry in to another mistake

Chorus
I'm taking my time
I know what I mean
I've made up my mind
Now I believe
It's better to be lonely
One look and I'm given out my number
One kiss and I'm calling you mine
Next thing I know we're going under
Why do I leave at misery
I think I believe
It's better to be lonely
It's better to be lonely
Yes, It's better to be lonely
It's better to be lonely
