Time after time
We play the villain without even trying
If my efforts in vain, you won't hear me complain
Cos I know that I'm better off today
When you can't see the wood through the trees
Some people are sent just to test you believe me
Just learn this lesson that we are all lions
Break boundaries, burn bridges, start fires
I just wanted to tell you about this list that I made
Of mistakes and regrets at the top there's your name
Time and again I look at it with results the same
Smile and laughter till finally shame
Your dice are all loaded
Pattern, colour coded
Hook, line, deep thinker, backfired exploded
Trouble, desire, I'm out I'm retired
If you're sure let me ask, did you get what you come for?
Did you get what you come for?
Don't waste my time
Did you get what you come for?
Don't waste my time
Did you get what you come for?
Don't waste my time
Did you get what you come for?
I saw the smoke rise from your gun
Before I heard the shot
I think it's clear I didn't mean a lot
But now I'm feeling so much better
I've got this book full of forget me nots
I feel ashamed to have been so wrong
But now I'm feeling so much better
Time after time
We play the villain without even trying
If my efforts in vain, you won't hear me complain
Cos I know I'm better off today
When you can't see the wood through the trees
Some people are sent just to test you believe me
Just learn this lesson that we are all lions
Break boundaries, burn bridges, start fires
I saw the smoke rise from your gun
Before I heard the shot
I think it's clear I didn't mean a lot
But now I'm feeling so much better
I've got this book full of forget me nots
I feel ashamed to have been so wrong
But now I'm feeling so much better
