I envy the restful and the power they hold
My mind is a rodeo I can't control
I stand convicted of all my faults
But don't believe all the stories you're told
I crave attention, please call me a star
Another rhinestone cowgirl passed out in the bar
I promised you I wouldn't come back empty-handed
And I'm sorry if I let you down
But I feel a little more like myself now
I've been changin' for the better
Said I pulled you apart holding myself together
But it's all for the better
I stayed when you asked me, sat by the bed
I wrote you songs and letters you never read
I know it's not your fault, I'm partly to blame
Maybe I despise you 'cause we're too much the same
I wanna be loved
But not like an idol
I wanna be held
Like when I was a child
I promised you I wouldn't come back empty-handed
And I'm sorry if I let you down
But I feel a little more like myself now
I've been changin' for the better
Said I pulled you apart holding myself together
And I'm sorry if I let you down
But I feel a whole more like myself now
I've been changin' for the better
Said I pulled you apart holding myself together
But it's all for the better
