Life's always been a roller-coaster ride. Up and down, not a second to hide. Reaching for the greener grass on the other side of the hills. Crossing the valley of greed, to another hope high another hope high, another hope high... I wish I was, I wish I was, a better man. I wish I was, I wish I was, I wish I was a better man. I used to know, who I was 'n what to do A maker, a taker, a pure heart-breaker. Used to be the stronger one If knocked down, just fought again. A brave without a doubt, Never wasted a thought about, a thought about, a thought about... I wish I was, I wish I was, a better man. I wish I was, I wish I was, I wish I was a better man. But something has changed, recently. Life's no longer how it used to be. I've seen me fade, seen my fate. Now I see my life in another light. I wish I was, I wish I was, a better man. I wish I was, I wish I was, I wish I was a better man.
