Known Better

[Verse 1] I’ve been staring at the silence Trying hard to face the truth Every choice I made without you Led me further from the truth I was blinded by the moment Didn’t think of what I’d lose Now I’m standing with the damage Of the path I chose to choose [Pre-Chorus] Can't get over what I have done I know what was right, but I let myself choose wrong Now I know that I have done wrong All I ask is forgiveness and understand me [Chorus] If I could take it all back now I would change the way I was Every word, every mistake Every time I broke your trust I’m not asking you to fix me I just need you to see I’m trying to be better now Just forgive me [Verse 2] Every night I hear your voice Echoing inside my head All the things I should have told you All the things I left unsaid I was running from the right path Chasing something I can’t keep Now I’m learning from the wreckage Of the promises I couldn’t keep [Pre-Chorus] Can't get over what I have done I know what was right, but I let myself choose wrong Now I know that I have done wrong All I ask is forgiveness and understand me [Chorus] If I could take it all back now I would change the way I was Every word, every mistake Every time I broke your trust I’m not asking you to fix me I just need you to see I’m trying to be better now Just forgive me [Bridge] I don’t deserve a second chance But I’m still here asking you If there’s a way to make it right I’ll do anything you want me to Even if you walk away I’ll carry what I’ve done And spend my life becoming Someone better than the one [Final Chorus] I can’t take it all back now But I can change the man I am Every scar, every regret Is a lesson in my hands You don’t have to stay with me But I hope someday you’ll see I’m trying to be better now Please forgive me
