Don’t recognize the man in the mirror these days Same old boots, but they don’t walk the same way Used to run when the road got steep Now I’m standing here on shaking feet Lost that map somewhere in between Who I was and who I’m tryna be Every step like a shot in the dark But I hear your voice, it lights a spark Yeah I’m rough around the edges, still a mess inside But I’m done with running, got nowhere left to hide I’m learning as I go, I don’t have it figured out Breaking old habits, trying to turn it around Yeah I stumble, yeah I fall, fighting ghosts I know But I’ll keep moving forward if it means you don’t go I ain’t proud of every mile on this road I chose But I’m learning as I go Past still knocking on my door some nights Whiskey talking when I’m losing fights Said things I can’t take back again Left you standing in the wreckage then But you stayed when I gave you every reason to leave Saw a better man in me I couldn’t see Now I’m holding on with all I’ve got Even when I don’t know what I’m not Yeah I’m halfway between who I was and who I’ll be But you’re the only thing that makes sense to me I’m learning as I go, I don’t have it figured out Breaking old habits, trying to turn it around Yeah I stumble, yeah I fall, fighting ghosts I know But I’ll keep moving forward if it means you don’t go I ain’t proud of every mile on this road I chose But I’m learning as I go Maybe I’ll get it right, maybe I won’t Maybe I’m stronger than I think—or I don’t But I’d rather be lost with you by my side Than find my way back to the man I was before I tried I’m learning as I go, every scar’s a lesson now Trying to be the man that you believe in somehow Yeah I’m bent, but I ain’t broke, yeah I’m closer than before And if loving you’s the reason, I’m still fighting for more I ain’t there yet, but I’m getting close I’m learning as I go
