Failed Second Chances

I knew it wouldn't work again,
It didn't even work last time,
So why did I try again?

Things were tense the first time,
The elephant was huge,
So why did I try again?

The problem didn't leave,
The problem didn't change,
I'm still me, problematic...

We knew it would fail again,
We knew things wouldn't be the same,
So why did we try again?

You just wanted more,
But you knew I couldn't do it,
So why did we try again?

It ended the same,
Or maybe worse,
Yeah, way worse.

It hurts more this time,
I can't believe you'd do this again,
You said you wouldn't,
You promised...
So why did you?

Why did we do it again when we knew the outcome would be the same?
