Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] My voice got sharp My heart got small I saw your faces Did I break it all? You flinched, you froze I crossed that line I watched your trust Slip out of mine You ain’t my target You my whole world Still I threw anger Straight at my girls Now I’m alone With what I said Every harsh word Playing back in my head [Chorus] I’m sorry for shouting at the girls I love I hate what I’ve done, that’s not who I was I miss our joy, our laughter, our plans I wanna be a better man, better man I’m sorry for raising my voice, my hands To the sky, asking how did this get out of hand I miss our joy, our closeness, our plans I gotta be a better man, better man (yeah) [Verse 2] You used to run Jump on my knees Sticky-finger hugs Cartoons on the screen Now the room’s quiet You don’t say much I feel that distance Every time we touch This guilt heavy Like chains on my chest If loving you’s the test I failed that test But I won’t fold I’ll own my wrong Put care in my tone Put truth in my songs [Bridge] You deserve calm You deserve soft You deserve safety Never getting cut off You deserve hugs In place of my pride If you scared of my voice Then I’m dying inside So hear me clear I’m changing, I swear Day by day I’ll prove I care (yeah) [Chorus] I’m sorry for shouting at the girls I love I hate what I’ve done, that’s not who I was I miss our joy, our laughter, our plans I wanna be a better man, better man I’m sorry for raising my voice, my hands To the sky, asking how did this get out of hand I miss our joy, our closeness, our plans I’m learning to love like you deserve, I am I’m gonna be a better man, better man (oh)
