Below, you will find the lyrics for I’ll Be Good by Jaymes Young.
Verse 1
I thought i saw the devil this morning
Looking in the mirror
Drop of rum on my tongue with a warning
To help me see myself clearer
Chorus 1
I never meant to start a fire
I never meant to make you bleed
I'll be a better man today
I'll be good, i'll be good
And i'll love the world like i should
I'll be good, i'll be good
For all of the times that i never could
Verse 2
My past has tasted bitter for years now so i wield an iron fist
Grace is just weakness, or so i've been told
I've been cold, i've been merciless
Chorus 2
But the blood on my hands scares me to death
Maybe i'm waking up today
I'll be good, i'll be good
And i'll love the world like i should
I'll be good, i'll be good
Bridge
For all of the light that i shut out
For all of the innocent things that i doubt
For all of the bruises i've caused and the tears
For all of the things that i've done
All these years, no, yeah
For all of the sparks that i stomped out
For all of the perfect things that i doubt
Chorus 3
I'll be good, i'll be good
And i'll love the world like i should yeah
I'll be good, i'll be good
For all of the times i never could
For all of the times i never could
