Empty Handed

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
