A Better Man

[Verse 1] I blame myself 'Cause I thought there was something wrong with me I thought it would be easy Just holding on And now I see There's no one close to me Yeah, that's not how it's supposed to me I made them run [Pre-Chorus] Watch me as I handmake my own stone wall There's a reason I won't ever let you in [Chorus] Why they never mean what they say? Told me they'd come back here someday Like my love was not enough for them to stay Never any luck when I try Everyone's so good at goodbyes And it's all I've ever known to walk away So yeah, I'm gonna leave you And learn how to stand But then I'm gonna come back A better man [Verse 1] I taught myself no one could love me And it wouldn't be easy This road I'm on And now I'm gone My head's hanging low again But God, I could use a friend I didn't trust no one [Pre-Chorus] You better calm down, yeah, Mr. Wrecking Ball There's a reason I won't ever let you in [Chorus] Why they never mean what they say? Told me they'd come back here someday Like my love was not enough for them to stay Never any luck when I try Everyone's so good at goodbyes And it's all I've ever known to walk away So yeah, I'm gonna leave you And learn how to stand But then I'm gonna come back A better man [Bridge] I've never gone this far before There's somethin' that I'm looking for I didn't ask for your help While I continue to find myself I could've told you The road makes fools of us all [Chorus] Why they never mean what they say? Told me they'd come back here someday Like my love was not enough for them to stay Never any luck when I try Everyone's so good at goodbyes And it's all I've ever known to walk away Why they never mean what they say? Told me they'd come back here someday Like my love was not enough for them to stay Never any luck when I try Everyone's so good at goodbyes And it's all I've ever known to walk away So yeah, I'm gonna leave you And learn how to stand Then I'm gonna come back A better man
