[Verse 1]

Are we defeated?

Did this season pass with no good news?

Our intention faded shortly after it bloomed

We wanted more, at least I did

You asked for more and I drew back

[Chorus]

Next time, I'm gonna be stronger, gonna be wiser

I'm gonna be better for you

Next time, I'm gonna be stronger, gonna be wiser

I'm gonna be better than you

I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be

[Verse 2]

Are all grand changеs accompanied by such sorrow and relief?

'Causе I'm on the precipice of new growth

I need to prune these dead leaves

Your final word, your final touch

You wanted more, but you asked me for too much

[Chorus]

Next time, I'm gonna be stronger, gonna be wiser

I'm gonna be better for you

Next time, I'm gonna be stronger, gonna be wiser

I'm gonna be better than you

I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be

[Bridge]

I give, you take

That was our first mistake

I shy away

And in the silence, we break

You fall, I rise

Over the city lights

You go, I stay

This is the only way

[Chorus]

Next time, I'm gonna be stronger, gonna be wiser

I'm gonna be better for you

Next time, I'm gonna be stronger, gonna be wiser

I'm gonna be better

This time, I'm gonna be stronger, gonna be wiser

I'm gonna be better for you

This time, I'm gonna be stronger, gonna be wiser

I'm gonna be better than you

I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be
