Maddie Boyer - Better Man Lyrics




So here it is: maybe I love you by obligation
And maybe I just never learned the way to leave
And here it is: maybe I've lost my motivation
I've been suffocating and he's the one who helped me breathe

And you know I've never liked change
My world's exploding in my face
Lost on a path we didn't anticipate
The pieces slowly rearrange
I feel myself losing faith
But through the tears, I still hear my grandmother say

"Sometimes you gotta let the world burn
And sometimes you gotta put yourself first
Even the strongest have things they can't withstand
Sometimes your kindness keeps you confined
And sometimes you have to leave love behind
Sometimes you can't let things go the way you planned"

So here it is: maybe you're right and I'm giving up
And maybe I've just euphemized the gravity
And here it is: maybe we'll never be enough
Maybe the one I need to love this time is me

And you know I've never liked change
My world's exploding in my face
Lost on a path we didn't anticipate
The pieces slowly rearrange
I feel myself losing faith
But through the tears, I still hear my grandmother say

"Sometimes you gotta let the world burn
And sometimes you gotta put yourself first
Even the strongest have things they can't withstand" (Oh I won't withstand)
Sometimes you gotta let things unwind
And sometimes you have to leave love behind
Sometimes you can't let things go the way you planned"

And maybe now's the time to figure this all out
Guess that when it rains, it pours
Somehow I've managed to swallow the doubt
But I just keep fighting more
And empty promises don't fill me up the way they used to
And oaths to change, just another exchange I've grown immune to
Maybe I'll stand better on my own without your loving's residue

So here it is: maybe you're right and I'm giving up

Oh sometimes you gotta let the world burn
And sometimes you gotta put yourself first
Even the strongest have things they can't withstand
Oh sometimes the enemy is your mind
And sometimes you have to leave love behind (Leaving you behind)
Simply hoping won't make him a better man
