Betterman
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 wish that I could let go
But I don't even think about it anymore
I want it cause I said so
Chasing my impulse down you cold, hard road
You should know
That I'm a ticking time bomb
And you're getting close
So better watch your step
Cause I'm about to blow
And where the pieces land
I guess we'll never know
Never know
If I was a better man
Would I want
What I want
Any man
Wouldn't I want
What I want
Everything
That I want's
Gonna harm me
Shame on me
Cause if I was a better man
Would I want
What I want
Any man
Wouldn't I want
What I want
Everything
That I want's
Gonna harm me
Shame on me
Shame on me
(Shame on me)
(You should know)
(You should know)
(Shame on me)
(You should know)
(You should know)
Everyday I move slow
Face my sanity
All alone
Who's gonna know
I'm lying at my best so
You find me trapped and tricked
Without nowhere to go
You should know
That I'm a ticking time bomb
And you're getting close
So better watch your step
Cause I'm about to blow
And where the pieces land
I guess we'll never know
Never know
If I was a better man
Would I want
What I want
Any man
Wouldn't I want
What I want
Everything
That I want's
Gonna harm me
Shame on me
Cause if I was a better man
Would I want
What I want
Any man
Wouldn't I want
What I want
Everything
That I want's
Gonna harm me
Shame on me
Shame on me
(Shame on me)
