You always knew, how to make me play the fool Never really questioned it was real Now I'm not sure so young that I can't deal with the guilt Of telling you how I really feel I don't wanna be the better man I don't wanna be the better man You cut me deep, when you let me believe That all of my wounds from you would heal But when you left, I discovered something true Something that I always kept concealed I don't wanna be the better man Wrestling every day with, not knowing if you Love me or him I don't wanna be the better man Taking your troubles on again, just filling my life up with Struggle and pain Just filling my life up with Struggle and pain Older and wiser, you've been round the block And now you're coming home like pretend You never know, how good you have I till it's gone Or how bad it was until it ends I don't wanna be the better man Wrestling every day with, not knowing if you Love me or him I don't wanna be the better man Taking your troubles on again, just filling my life up with Struggle and pain Just filling my life up with Struggle Cause you're gonna have your way, with my heart You're gonna help yourself to my needs Every time you call, gonna drop it all I don't wanna be the better man I don't wanna be the better man I don't wanna be the better man I don't wanna be the better man
