What is life? What's the purpose of living? [Pre-Chorus] When will you understand? Do you even understand? I just want to understand [Chorus] You say you're better off now Are you better off now? You're better off now You're better off [Post-Chorus] Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah [Bridge] I need the money I have a hard time asking for it I don't like people No one ever seems to get it Oh What is life? What is life? What's the purpose of living? [Pre-Chorus] When will you understand? Do you even understand? I just want to understand [Chorus] You say you're better off now Are you better off now? You're better off now You're better off [Post-Chorus] Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
