What seemed like a new beginning
Has ended the same old way
What you thought was a bright new morning
Is just the start of another day
You can’t tell her what you feel
About what was in your heart
You just let her walk away
And now you’re falling apart
Over and over
It hurts like it did before
Over and over
You try to learn something more
Over and over
You can’t imagine why
Over and over
So you put your nose to the grindstone
To escape however you can
But there’s nowhere you can hide
From the feeling that you failed again
You can’t tell her what you feel
About what was in your heart
But you never stopped to question
Was that ever really your part?
It happened in a matter of minutes
Like scales falling from my eyes
I realized I didn’t care about you
And my heart turned as cold as ice
Over and over
It doesn’t hurt me anymore
Over and over
I’m becoming something more
Over and over
I really don’t care why
Over and over
Yes, it’s finally over
