New Person, Same Old Mistakes

Lyrics

New Person, Same Old Mistakes

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 'round 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'll make the same old mistakes) I don't care, I'm in love (stop before it's too late, I know) Feel like a brand new person (but you'll make the same old mistakes) I finally know what it's 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 Not thinking in black and white I'm thinking it's worth the fight Soon to be out of sight Knowing it all this time Going with what I always longed for Feel like a brand new person (but you'll make the same old mistakes) I don't care, I'm in love (stop before it's too late) Feel like a brand new person (but you'll make the same old mistakes) So how will I know I've gone too 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 your 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 And 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 was) I feel like a brand new person I finally know what it's like (stop thinking that the only option was) In a new direction, so how will I know I've gone too far? (Stop thinking that the only option was) And I know it's hard to describe (Stop thinking that the only option was) in a new direction So how will I know that it's right?
