I've read all the red letters in the bible

My parents taught me touching fire gets you burned

I've watched all of the TED talks 'bout addiction

But there's a difference between "I know" and "I've learned"

So I'm always talking to my therapist

And he's tryna talk me off the ledge

Same problems that we've tried to fix a thousand times

I know better

So you'd think by now I'd have my shit together

But I don't and it shows every time

I drink too much, text my ex

Let the voices in my head get the best of me

I know better

But I'm no better

I know better

But I'm no better

I know better

I make promises at New Year's resolutions

Swear to God I'll get it right this time around

But then it's back to six shots deep on a Saturday night

And I know in the morning I'm paying the price

When I wake up next to her, I guess I'll never learn

Yeah, I know better

So you'd think by now I'd have my shit together

But I don't and it shows every time

I drink too much, text my ex

Let the voices in my head get the best of me

I know better

But I'm no better

I know better

But I'm no better

I know better

I'm always talking to my therapist

And he's tryna talk me off the ledge

Same problems that we've tried to fix a thousand times

I know better

So you'd think by now I'd have my shit together

But I don't and it shows every time

I drink too much, text my ex

Let the voices in my head get the best of me

I know better

But I'm no better

I know better

But I'm no better

I know better (whoa)

I'm no better

I know better

But I'm no better

I know better

I'm no better
