lyrics

Mistake Again

Even tho you keep me so uneasy, even tho you had a laugh on me
Tables turned and now's your chance to please me
you won't get away this time so easily

I won't let you hurt me, make me out a fool
Run off and desert me, you gotta live by my rules

I won't make that same mistake again
honey better believe me
I won't let you make my heart break again
I'm holdin' all o the aces this time
I see all o your faces this time baby

I ain't lookin for your true confession
I don't need your warehouse words your put-on airs
You can find yourself a new obsession
you can pawn your bullshit down where someone cares

If I wanted shot up I woulda joined the army
Honey now I'm not up to lettin lovers harm me

I won't make that same mistake again
honey better believe me
I won't let you make my heart break again
I'm holdin' all o the aces this time
I see all o your faces this time baby

Its something of a joke now, just between friends
Isn't any punch line
Isn't any ending

I won't make that same mistake again
honey better believe me
I won't let you make my heart break again
I'm holdin' all o the aces this time
I see all o your faces this time baby
