I move on like a sinner's prayer
Lettin' go like a levee breaks
Walk away as if I don't care
Learn to shoulder my mistakes

I'm built to fade like your favorite song
Getting reckless when there's no need
Laugh as your stories ramble on
Break my heart, but it won't bleed

My only friends are pirates
It's just who I am
I'm better as a memory
Than as your man

Never sure when the truth won't do
I'm pretty good on a lonely night
I move on the way the storm blows through
I never stay but then again I might

I struggle sometimes to find the words
Always sure until I doubt
Walk a line until it blurs
Build walls too high to climb out

But I'm honest to a fault
It's just who I am
I'm better as a memory
Than as your man

I see you leaning
You're bound to fall
I don't want to be that mistake

I'm just a dreamer
Nothing more
You should know it before it gets too late

'Cause "goodbye's" are like a roulette wheel
You never know where they're gonna land
First you're spinning then your standin' still
Left holdin' A losing hand

One day your gonna find someone
Right away you'll know it's true
That all of your seeking's done
It's just a part of the passing through

Right there in that moment
You'll finally understand
That I was better as a memory
Than as your man

Better as a memory than as your man
