As I kick myself again And I try to pick myself back up again Don't want to make the same mistakes Always the first with an excuse But it's when you're cornered by the truth Sometimes it's easier that way
As you turn away When realization stares you down And you swear you've come to terms, I'm wary I've seen it all too many times
It never made much sense So I always had to stop and second guess
Defeat myself before I start
Comfort seems so far away Peace of mind is just a luxury Forgetting is the hardest part
It's not what you say that matters Because anyone can say those words to me You say I lack compassion But that's when my first reaction Isn't how you wanted me to be
As I kick myself again And I try to pick myself back up again Don't want to make the same mistakes
