Better Than This

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I'm sorry

I wanted to be

So much better than this

But I don't think I can

I'm sorry

I wanted to be

So much better than this

But I don't think I can

I say these words to keep your body

Close to my heart

I know you're gone, but I still miss you all the time

I say I'm fine but I can't keep you from my mind

You knew the worst of me

You loved the things I hated in myself

You saw my greatest fears

You sat with me those sixteen years

When I hated myself, and hated you

For loving me all the same

Please look away

But now, I've grown

And moved away from home

I keep my problems to myself

Because you taught me that strength

Wasn't building good support

But rather needing nothing of the sort

I keep steadfast in faith not to the world

But to your voice drilling deep inside my head

I've known the worst of this

I've cut off everyone

Because you taught me that's how a man

Should be

I'm sorry

I wanted to be

So much better than this

But I don't think I can

I'm sorry

I wanted to be

So much better than this

But I don't think I can

I say these words to keep your body

Close to my heart

I know you're gone, but I still miss you all the time

I say I'm fine but I can't keep you from my mind

I wanted to be so much better

But I'm not
