Better Than I Used To Be

(album: Better Than I Used To Be - 2010)

I know how to hold a grudge
I can send a bridge up in smoke
and I can't count the people I've let down
or the hearts I've broke
you ain't gotta dig too deep if you wanna find some dirt on me
but I'm learning who you've been ain't who you've gotta be
It's gonna be an uphill climb
but honey I won't lie

I ain't no angel
but I've been sitting out a few more dances with the devil
and cleaning up my act little by little
I'm getting there
I can finally stand the man in the mirror I see
I ain't as good as I'm gonna get
but I'm better than I used to be

I've pinned a lot of demons to the ground
got a lot of old habits licked
but there's still one or two I might need you to help me kick
standing in the rain so long has left me with a little rust
but put some faith in me
some day you'll see there's a diamond under all this dust

I ain't no angel
but I've been sitting out a few more dances with the devil
and cleaning up my act little by little
I'm getting there
I can finally stand the man in the mirror I see
I ain't as good as I'm gonna get
but I'm better than I used to be

I ain't no angel
but I've been sitting out a few more dances with the devil
and cleaning up my act little by little
I'm getting there
I can finally stand the man in the mirror I see
I ain't as good as I'm gonna get
but I'm better than I used to be
