I think hes trying to come to terms with his alcoholism. He knows he wants to be better for his daughter but, isn't strong enough yet to stop drinking.
"And wondered if she’ll soon despise the smell
Of the booze on my breath, like her mom
Through a darkened mirror I have seen my own reflection
And it makes me want to be a better man
After another drink."
I think he has the desire to change but, his desire to drink is stronger. Sad, but so many times truly what people go through.
