Mistakes

When will I learn to stop me making the same mistakes again
Same mistakes again, for you?
When will I learn to lock my heart so it doesn't break again, no?
Doesn't break again, in two
I should've known, should've known by now
That I was gonna come back around, see
Back in the day you know you let me down
Thought maybe I finally figured you out, 'cause
We said that things would be different
But all that turns out to be fiction
Breaking dishes in the kitchen
Walking on glass of pain
You say it's space that you needed
I said, "Well fuck it I'm leaving"
But history keeps on repeating
When will I learn to stop me making the same mistakes again
Same mistakes again, for you
When will I learn to lock my heart so it doesn't break again, no?
Doesn't break again, in two
When will I learn that I, I can do better
I can do better, much better than you?
When will I learn to stop me making the same mistakes again?
Over and over again, over and over again
I'm all out of new words to say (Words to say)
Running on empty, out of reasons to stay (To stay)
My friends told me it would go this way
They call me stupid when I say that you've changed, but
You said that things would be different
But all that turns out to be fiction
History keeps on repeating
When will I learn to stop me making the same mistakes again
Same mistakes again, for you?
When will I learn to lock my heart so it doesn't break again, no?
Doesn't break again, in two
When will I learn that I, I can do better
I can do better, much better than you?
When will I learn to stop me making the same mistakes again?
Over and over again, over and over again
I should know better, I should know better
I should know better, tell me why, yeah
I can't remember, I can't remember
The way he hurts me every time
When will I learn that I, I can do better
I can do better, much better than you?
When will I learn to stop me making the same mistakes again?
Over and over again, over and over again
When will I learn to stop me making the same mistakes again
Same mistakes again, for you?
When will I learn to lock my heart so it doesn't break again, no?
Doesn't break again, in two
