There's been a lot of things said about me
Since that awful day
I'm not that person that I used to be
And that I'll never be the same
That's true no doubt
But I know more now what life is about
I laugh louder
Cry harder
I take less time to make up my mind
And I think smarter
Go slower
I know what I want and what I don't
I'll be better than I've ever been
Maybe I'll be better than I've ever been
If someone told me 20 years ago
That this would be my life
I'd lose the greatest gift that love can show
I'd have said, "No, I won't survive"
But don't count me out
Sometimes I'm stronger than I've ever felt
I laugh louder
Cry harder
I take less time to make up my mind
And I think smarter
Go slower
I know what I want and what I don't
And I'll be better than I've ever been
Maybe I'll be better than I've ever been
There's a curious freedom
Rising up from the dark
Some kind of strength I've never had
Though I'd trade it in a second just to have you back
I've gotta try to make some good out of the bad
I laugh louder
Cry harder
I take less time to make up my mind
And I think smarter
Go deeper
I know what I want and what I don't
I'll be better than I've ever been
Better than I've ever been
Yeah
Oh-oh
(Better than I've ever been)
(Better than I've ever been)
(Better than I've ever been)
(Better than I've ever been)
(Better than I've ever been)
(Better than I've ever been)
(Better than I've ever been)
