What female song better off dead in the soundtrack for dead?

The song you're referring to is probably "Better Off Dead" by Gin Blossoms, which was featured in the 1995 American comedy film "Empire Records". The song is about a character who is feeling lost and alone, and is contemplating suicide. The lyrics express a sense of hopelessness and despair, with the chorus repeating the line "I'd rather be dead, than be here without you".
