Time And Time Again
papa roach Lyrics

Yes I did it and I'll do it again
I have repeated my past mistakes and I am likely to repeat them again

It doesn't matter if I am your best friend
It's irrelevant if we are close friends or not, my actions will still be selfish

You're not that smart
You are unable to see my true intentions because you are not very perceptive

Over and over it breaks my heart
Repeatedly acting selfishly causes pain and heartache

The cycle continues, time for your crime
A pattern of selfish behavior is occurring and it's time to address it

The pain comes back in an ugly design
Selfish actions result in emotional pain that can take a terrible form

Her makeup smears
She is crying and her makeup is running

The tears that she cries
She is experiencing emotional distress and is crying

Over and over every night
The same negative scenario plays out repeatedly without change

Emotional swords slash my soul
I am emotionally hurt by the situation

And now the pain, it takes control
The emotional pain is now becoming overwhelming

I think about you
I am reflecting on our relationship and the current situation

I think about me
I am also considering my own actions and motivations

I think about the way that it used to be
I miss the way things were before our relationship became strained

I need a bottle
I turn to alcohol as a coping mechanism

I need some pills
I also rely on medication to deal with my emotional pain

I need a friend
I seek out support from others in my life

And I need some thrills
I also crave excitement or distractions to avoid facing my emotional pain

A shoulder to cry on
I reach out to others for emotional support

A friend to depend on
I rely on my friends for help and support

When life gets rough
During difficult times, I seek out help from others

It's like a fight every single day
Our relationship is a constant source of conflict

It's always easy when you have it your way
You make things easy for yourself, regardless of the impact on others

Deep in my heart
In the depths of my emotions

In the depths of my soul
In the core of my being

My selfish ways are out of control
I recognize that my behavior is selfish and uncontrollable

I'm sorry that it comes down to this
I regret that our relationship has come to this point

I punch through the wall as I break my fist
I am so frustrated that I take out my anger physically and hurt myself

You're so selfish
I accuse you of being equally selfish as me

You're making me want to end this
Your selfish actions are causing me to want to end our relationship

Loving ties unwind
The bond between us weakens due to our selfish behavior

Lost time behind
We have wasted time and opportunities due to our selfishness
