[Verse 1]
You say, "Don't light that cigarette"
I count from one to ten under my breath
I fight the feeling that I'm better, better, better off
I'm better, better when you're gone
You say I don't look good in black (Good in black)
I'm dressed up miserable and I like that (I like that)
I fight the feeling that I'm better, better, better off
I'm better, better when you're gone

[Pre-Chorus]
I can get a little bit high, I can gеt a little bit low
I can get a little bit crazy
I can gеt a little bit stoned, a little bit insecure
I can get a little bit lost
And it's a little too much for you
But you can't hold me down

[Chorus]
I ain't no ballerina but I'll dance all night on my own
(Better off when you're gone, better off when you're gone)
I ain't no perfect body but I feel like Marilyn Monroe
(Better off when you're gone, better off when you're gone)
Yeah, you know the way you see me ain’t the way I see me
I’m an ultraviolet and I keep on beaming
Ain't no ballerina but I'll dance all night on my own
(Better off when you're gone, better off when you're gone)

[Verse 2]
Think you're the reason I compare myself
You're doing damage to my mental health
Finally believing that I'm better, better, better off
I'm better, better when you're gone
At 3AM, I'm in the darkest place (Darkest place)
Screaming my lungs out in the pillowcase (Pillowcase)
Got to remember that I'm better, better, better off
I'm better, better when you're gone
But you can't hold me down

[Chorus]
I ain't no ballerina but I'll dance all night on my own
(Better off when you're gone, better off when you're gone)
I ain't no perfect body but I feel like Marilyn Monroe
(Better off when you're gone, better off when you're gone)
Yeah, you know the way you see me ain’t the way I see me
I’m an ultraviolet and I keep on beaming
Ain't no ballerina but I'll dance all night on my own
(Better off when you're gone, better off when you're gone)

[Pre-Chorus]
I can get a little bit high, I can get a little bit low
I can get a little bit crazy
I can get a little bit stoned, a little bit insecure
I can get a little bit lost
And it's a little too much for you
But you can't hold me down

[Chorus]
I ain't no ballerina but I'll dance all night on my own
(Better off when you're gone, better off when you're gone)
I ain't no perfect body but I feel like Marilyn Monroe
(Better off when you're gone, better off when you're gone)
Yeah, you know the way you see me ain’t the way I see me
I’m an ultraviolet and I keep on beaming
Ain't no ballerina but I'll dance all night on my own
(Better off when you're gone, better off when you're gone)
