Terri Clark

Better Than I Was

I've torn down a dirt road knowing that I wasn't supposed to leave

Left an F5 mile wide hell of a lot of hurt behind me

I can't count the times I've left the bottle empty

Chasing down a buzz

I lost myself in places that I know I shouldn't have been

Like a broken record spinning 'round I found trouble again

I've refused some, used some when everybody wanted to be my friend

It was like a drug

Oh but these days

I'm digging in and getting real with all my mistakes

Going easy on myself and finding my way

I ain't there yet

I'm still a little bit messed up

But I'm better than I was

I broke apart and stole some hearts that were never mine

In my life I've learned there's no such thing as a straight line

I weave in and out and on a on a good day I might get it right

Yeah I'm better than I was

Oh but these days

I'm digging in and getting real with all my mistakes

Going easy on myself and finding my way

I ain't there yet

I'm still a little bit messed up

But I'm better than I was

Oh but these days

I'm digging in and getting real with all my mistakes

Going easy on myself and finding my way

I ain't there yet

I'm still a little bit messed up

But I'm better than I was
