[Verse 1]
You left the door half-open
Cold air on my skin
Same old look, same old promise
Same old place I’ve been
You say it like it fixes it
But I still taste the bruise
I’m done with the pretty version
Done with the same excuse
[Pre-Chorus]
Say it plain
Look at me
If you mean it, mean it
I’m not here
For almost
I need more than repeating
[Chorus]
Don’t be sorry
Be better
Say it once, then do it right
Don’t be sorry
Be better
Meet me there in the hard part of the night
Be better (be better)
Be better (be better)
I’m not asking for forever
Don’t be sorry
Be better
[Verse 2]
I watched your words fall easy
Like coins on a floor
Pretty and loud for a second
Then they rolled to the door
I held the line too long, babe
Kept the peace, kept score
Now I want the truth in your hands
Not a maybe anymore
[Pre-Chorus]
Say it plain
Look at me
If you mean it, mean it
I’m not here
For almost
I need more than repeating
[Chorus]
Don’t be sorry
Be better
Say it once, then do it right
Don’t be sorry
Be better
Meet me there in the hard part of the night
Be better (be better)
Be better (be better)
I’m not asking for forever
Don’t be sorry
Be better
[Bridge]
Less talk
More truth
Show me change I can hold
One step
Then two
Make the broken parts unfold
If you want me here
Then come back different
Come back real
Come back different
[Chorus]
Don’t be sorry
Be better
Say it once, then do it right
Don’t be sorry
Be better
Meet me there in the hard part of the night
Be better (be better)
Be better (be better)
I’m not asking for forever
Don’t be sorry
Be better
