Hopeless*

From the Mathew Good Band

Lost out on this highway
these high beams, they are blinding me
because I would be there if
I was a better man

Even at the end of my road
I still feel so without a path
because I would be there if
I was a better man

'Cause I'm hopeless
and have no will to change
I would I suppose
if I was a better man

But it's midnight in my mind
so I am only lost in my own reality
Or I would be there
with my heart where I belong

'Cause I'm hopeless
and do not know how to change
to be what you need and want
I would I suppose if I was a better man

Lost out on this highway
the passing cars, they blind me
because I would be there if
I was a better man

At the end of the day
I still am so far from anyplace I want to be
because I cannot so worth
if I could just be a better man

'Cause I'm hopeless
I don't know the way
I just have little value
I would I suppose if I was a better man

I would like to blame the world
I would like to say not in my control
but I know in my heart
I just am not a better man
I am not one any can trust
I just am not of worth
I would I suppose if I was a better man
I am just lost
because I am not a better man
