You Go Back

You still can’t dance, to that same old song

Are your fingers still there, from touching the same fire?

Don’t you get tired,

You go back to what’s hurt you, so many times

Before.

 

Learn from mistakes,

It will help you survive,

Take notes on the way,

Forget the names you will try.

Learn from mistakes,

It may help you survive,

Live in the moment, yeah,

But don’t forget,

Don’t forget, yesterday

 

You still can’t sing, that same old tune

Once bitten, clearly never shy

Don’t you, don’t you get tired?

You go back to what’s hurt you, so many times.

 

Learn from mistakes,

It will help you survive,

Take notes on the way,

Forget the names you will try.

Learn from mistakes,

It may help you survive,

Live in the moment, yeah,

But don’t forget,

Don’t forget, yesterday

 

Change the locks,

Change the locks,

Burn down the house

That tears you down.

Change the locks,

Do the wrong thing once,

And never again.

 

Learn from mistakes,

It will help you survive,

Take notes on the way,

Forget the names you will try.

Learn from mistakes,

It may help you survive,

Live in the moment, yeah,

But don’t forget,

Don’t forget, yesterday
