New Person, Same Old Mistakes

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I can just hear them now

How could you let us down?

But they don't know what I found

Or see it from this way around

Feeling it overtake

All that I used to hate

One by one, every trait

I tried but it's way too late

All the signs I don't read

Two sides of me can't agree

Will I be in too deep?

Going with what I always longed for

Feel like a brand new person

(But you make the same old mistakes)

Well, I don't care I'm in love

(Stop before it's too late, I know)

Feel like a brand new person

(But you make the same old mistakes)

I finally know what is like

(You don't have what it takes)

(Stop before it's too late)

(I know there's too much at stake)

(Making the same mistakes)

And I still don't know why it's happening

(Stop while it's not too late)

And I still don't know

Finally taking flight

I know you don't think it's right

I know that you think it's fake

Maybe fake's what I like

The point is I have the right

No thinking in black and white

I'm thinking it's worth the fight

Soon to be out of sight

Moving it out this time

Going with what I always longed for

Feel like a brand new person

(But you make the same old mistakes)

Well, I don't care I'm in love

(Stop before it's too late)

Feel like a brand new person

(But you make the same old mistakes)

So how do you know I've gone to far?

(You don't have what it takes)

(Stop before it's too late)

Man, I know that it's hard to digest

But maybe this story ain't so different from the rest

And I know it seems wrong to accept

But you've got your demons, and she's got her regrets

Man, I know that it's hard to digest

A realization is as good as a guess

And I know it seems wrong to accept

But you've got your demons, and she's got her regrets

But you've got your demons, and she's got her regrets

Feel like a brand new person

So how will I know that it's right?

In a new direction

So how will I know I've gone too far?

(Stop thinking that the only option)

Feel like a brand new person

I finally know what it's like

(Stop thinking that the only option)

In a new direction

So how will I know I've gone too far?

(Stop thinking that the only option)

And I know it's hard to describe

(Stop thinking that the only option)

So how will I know that it's right?
