Westown Bend - Better Than Me (Acoustic) Lyrics

He stands with a cigarette hanging from his mouth
The life he chose he's got not one doubt
He says, you're cut from the same cloth as me
Apple doesn't fall far from the tree
Now, you stand or fall it's all on you now

All in
Every day and night, not just when it feels right
Before the bed gets cold and you're all alone
She's more important than the fight
You gotta be better than me
You gotta be better than me

When it comes down to it
Whose gonna be the one to hold you through it
Twenty years down the line, you'll find, there's no one like her
More time passes by, a little one who has her pretty eyes
Let you in on one big surprise, you're on top of the world

All in
Every day and night, not just when it feels right
Before the bed gets cold and you're all alone
She's more important than the fight
You gotta be better than me
You gotta be better than me

Now all my life I tried to be
The best husband and father that I could be
When the clock ran out on your mom and me
I just let it go and slammed the door
Now years go by and I finally see
Don't make the same mistake as me

You gotta be better
You gotta be better than me
