Verse 1, 2, and 3

I might be wrong but I might be right, Anyhow I know I tried
I better leave, I better leave, I better stop

I like her taste when it fills my soul, I'll tell you something I've never told anyone, 
anyone, not anyone

Everyone's got a bleeding heart, I don't know where or when to start
I better bleed, I better bleed, I better stop
I better bleed, I better bleed, I better stop

Ending of the Chorus 1 and Verse 4, 5

Life is good, It's what I see that
Makes me want to disagree
I better leave, I better leave, I better not

You might be wrong cause you know I'm right
If you lose your way you just follow mine
I better leave, I better leave, I better stop
I better leave, I better leave, I better stop
