This time around's no different I've played with chance like you I loved to toy with fate But, oh, I didn't have a clue That I would lose, oh, I would lose Between my left and right, one day I'd have to choose (I'd have to choose) You're not like me, I'm not like you, I'm not who these things happen to And that's exactly what you say before they do I can't dance like I used to I don't have the same moves as you But that's okay, fortune find your way To someone who needs it much more than me Hand in hand come human error And plain bad luck It seems the timing's always wrong for the ones who wait too long You'll never catch a break, you'll have to make your own My legs drag behind me And they creak in syncopated time But I know that one day I will lose them too I didn't have a clue That I would lose, oh, I would lose Between my left and right, one day, I'd have to choose You're not like me, I'm not like you, I'm not who these things happen to And that's exactly what you say before it catches up to you Before you play with knives and find yourself in two, you, you, you You, you, you, you I finally climbed to heights I No matter how I try, can't descend Still somehow they're looking down on me Laughing 'cause I got what I deserved (You got what you deserved) And I would do it again I'm not sorry, but thank you For enduring me as long as you did That's more than I'd ever ask of you
