This Time It's Different
You Are Correct

#CHORUS
This time it’s different
I’m gonna change my ways
This time it’s different
Out with the bad, but the good stuff stays
#VERSE
Got a problem with communication
Got a problem with bending truth
Told you ‘bout the heavy stress I’m facing
You say it’s no excuse
Give me one more chance to make a breakthrough
Give me one more day to make things right
I fell short but I did not forsake you
Please, baby, let’s not fight
#CHORUS
This time it’s different
I’m gonna change my ways
This time it’s different
Out with the bad, but the good stuff stays
#VERSE
Got a problem with your expectations
You like pointing out when I fall short
I get no time off for good behavior
Always guilty in your court
You say that my flaws are misdemeanors
You say that I’m good down in my soul
You can scrub my skin with toxic cleaners
Please make this stained man whole
#CHORUS
I’m so much less than perfect
For my faults I now repent
Let me start with a clean slate
Cause this time it’s different
#BRIDGE
You say you still love me
Say I have integrity
But I can tell how often you get annoyed
So, starting here today
I’ll do all things your way
You’ll have no choice than to be overjoyed
#INSTRUMENTAL
#VERSE
I’m so happy that I finally woke up
I’m so happy that I fell in line
Hurt my ego but I’m glad you spoke up
Now our life’s pure sunshine
I’m the man who’s always ringing your bells
Do things right nine out of ten
Least until next time I stomp the eggshells
Then I’ll sing this refrain again...
#CHORUS
This time it’s different
I’m gonna change my ways
This time it’s different
Out with the bad, but the good stuff stays
#CHORUS
I’m so much less than perfect
For my faults I now repent
Let me start with a clean slate
Cause this time it’s different
