Same Mistake

(Verse 1)

I heard the warning in your voice

Still I went and made the choice

Called the fall a twist of fate

Blamed the world… procrastinate

(Half Chorus)

Same mistake, a different night

Same old wrong dressed up as right

Walking circles in my mind

Leaving better sense behind

(Verse 2)

I lost it all but never grieved

Just a story I believed

Cracks were hiding in the paint

I never knew the word restraint

(Chorus)

Same mistake, a different night

Same old wrong dressed up as right

Walking circles in my mind

Leaving better sense behind

Said next time I’d break the chain

Next time I would face the pain

But time don’t wait, it moves along

And suddenly the chance is gone

(Bridge)

Then the silence spoke at last

Through the wreckage of my past

Every lesson left unread

Every word I never said

Wisdom standing at the gate

Arrived for me… a little late

Watched the moment drift from view

As it walked away with you

(Chorus)

Same mistake, a different night

Same old wrong dressed up as right

Walking circles in my mind

Leaving better sense behind

Said next time I’d break the chain

Next time I would face the pain

But time don’t wait, it moves along

And suddenly the chance is gone

Time don’t wait, soon it’s gone

Don’t wait to admit the wrong….
