As I kick myself again
And I try to pick myself back up again
Don't want to make the same mistake
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 weary
I've seen it all too many times
It never made much sense
So I always had to stop an second guess
Defeat myself before I start
Comfort seems so far away
Peace of mind is just a luxary
Forgetting is the hardest part
It's not what you say matters
Because anyone could say those words to me
You say that 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 mistake
