Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You left your books on the counter
Coffee stain on the last page
You said
"Someday you'll thank me"
Then you walked right off the frame
I kept your coat through the summer
Hung it up like a bad habit
Thought I’d drown you out in thunder
But your name rode every static
[Chorus]
I'm not tryna be a better man for you
I'm just tired of the mirror and the same excuse
If I fix this wreck
It’s for my own two hands
If I learn to stay
It’s ’cause I finally can
You were just the spark in a line of plans
But I’m the one who makes me
A better man
[Verse 2]
Friday nights feel a little quieter
Same bar
Same crooked stool
They still ask if you’re comin'
I just laugh and change the tune
I ain't praying for a redo
Ain’t rewinding what we burned
I’m just learning how to tell the truth
In a life I gotta earn
[Chorus]
I'm not tryna be a better man for you
I'm just tired of the mirror and the same excuse
If I fix this wreck
It’s for my own two hands
If I learn to stay
It’s ’cause I finally can
You were just the spark in a line of plans
But I’m the one who makes me
A better man
[Bridge]
I blamed every ghost in this small town (oh)
For the cracks I carved myself
Now it’s me and this empty driveway
And the keys back on the shelf
[Chorus]
I'm not tryna be a better man for you
I'm just done being hostage to the things I do
If I fix this wreck
It’s for my own two hands
If I learn to stay
It’s ’cause I finally can
You were just the spark in a line of plans
I’m walking out of who I was
Into who I am
Yeah
I’m the one who makes me
A better man
