Times are changing
Everybody's waking up
To the things they wanna change

Oh to be, oh to be the better man
Oh to change just as fast as you can

Hearts are breaking
Everybody's making up
For the things they didn't mean

Mistakes, mistakes are all that's left
Mistakes put you back up on my shelf

And I can't let go
Of what's holding on to me
This is just for show
'Cause you don't wanna see who I am
Sure as hell not the better man
Sure as hell not the better man

Lives are changing
Everybody's waving hands in the air
They're singing songs of praise
But it feels so dead to me
Could it be that I just don't believe?

And I can't let go
Of what's holding on to me
This is just for show
'Cause you don't wanna see who I am
Sure as hell not the better man
Sure as hell not the better man

I am naked
And I'm trying but I just can't make it
Oh Jesus, I'm doing all I can
I'm just a man
And he said
Child, I don't remember
What you've done
Child, I don't remember
The things you're dying from
Child, I don't remember
What you've done
Child, I don't remember

And I can't let go
Of what's holding on to me
This is just for show
'Cause you don't wanna see who I am
Sure as hell not the better man
Sure as hell not the better man
