Old Tricks

Second chances overrated
I’ll take what I’ve got right here
I’m not one to ask for help
Take your time and judge me right
I’d hate for you to be mistaken
‘Cause I can make mistakes myself
I shouldn’t have to tell you who I am
Oh no
I can’t believe the words that are coming out of my mouth
I swear this isn’t me and I am sure
That what I’m worth is so much more than this
And who I’ve come to be
Strip me down to skin and bones
All my sins and faults exposed
I’m sick of telling people sorry when I’m not
I’ll be honest if you want but don’t get mad when I screw up
You should have known that this was coming all along
I shouldn’t have to tell you who I am
Oh no
I can’t believe the words that are coming out of my mouth
I swear this isn’t me and I am sure
That what I’m worth is so much more than this
And who I’ve come to be
Call me a liar if it’s what you need
My integrity all but gone
And all my double standards running out of steam
I’ve fallen short of what I hoped I’d be
My excuses almost worthless for the side of me I don’t want you to see
Oh no
I can’t believe the words that are coming out of my mouth
I swear this isn’t me and I am sure that, what I’m worth is so much more than
this and who I’ve come to be
