Not Going Down That Road Again

Not Going Down That Road Again

I’ve been burned a time or two

And now I get the same from you

And you expect me to understand

I have passed this way before

And I’m not doing it anymore

I’ve been as patient as I can

If this were only up to me

I know right now where we would be

I shouldn’t be sitting here all alone

But it seems to me that you

Have decided what we should do

Have me wait here by the phone

It seems that history repeats itself

Well at least it does for me

I’ve made my choice, bad ones every time

But there’s one thing I can guarantee

I’m not going down this road again

I may not be the very best

But I’m as good as all the rest

And it’s time I took control

I’ve let others tell me how

But I can tell you one thing now

With an iron fist I’ll hold

It seems that history repeats itself

Well at least it does for me

I’ve made my choice, bad ones every time

But there’s one thing I can guarantee

I’m not going down this road again

Cause life is too short now to waste

And it’s time that I break free

And now from this day on

There’s one thing that I can guarantee

I’m not going down this road again
