Never Again

If I said I'm sorry, would you even understand?

Thoughts of my past self speak to the person that I am

I've been losing sleep, I toss and turn

But there's so much I haven't learned

As I grow old, I'm more concerned

These words will reach you as I start to fade away

Maybe I should explain

I, I create my distance

Why I don't ever listen

You kept me safe and sound

And still, I always let you down

I, I'm so self-destructive

Why am I so reluctant

To let these habits end?

Close this book and start again

Never again, never again, never again

Never again, never again, never again

Oh, no

If I said I'm sorry, would you give me a fair chance?

Let me catch my breath, I swear I'll help you understand

I wasn't myself, I was someone else

Losing you was not good for my health

I've been in a panic, this is hell

Maybe I should give up, wish you well

I'm sorry, I'll start over again

I, I create my distance

Why I don't ever listen

You kept me safe and sound

And still, I always let you down

I, I'm so self-destructive

Why am I so reluctant

To let these habits end?

Close this book and start again

Never again, never again, never again

Never again, never again, never again

I'm trying so hard to be

Someone that you could love easily

I, I create my distance

Why I don't ever listen

You kept me safe and sound

Still, I always let you down

I, I create my distance

Why I don't ever listen

You kept me safe and sound

And still, I always let you down

I, I'm so self-destructive

Why am I so reluctant

To let these habits end?

Close this book and start again

Never again, never again, never again

Still I always let you down

Never again, never again, never again

Never again, never again, never again

Still I always let you down

Never again, never again, never again (oh-oh)

(Never again, never again, never again)

(Never again, never again, never again)

(Never again, never again, never again)
