Better Off As We Are Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Lost Highway 

Cover art for Better Off As We Are lyrics by Blue Rodeo

This is a great song by a great band. The message/story is about aspiring to escape things (loser friends, dead-end hometowns) that bring you down and destroy your soul. This song is driven by great harmonies and lyrics. One of Blue Rodeo's best.

This seems like a prequel to "This Town", definitely an amazing song that has always struck a chord with me
