Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealin'
Tired of livin' like a blind man
I'm sick inside without a sense of feelin'
And this is how you remind me
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am
It's not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
For handing you a heart worth breakin'
I've been wrong, I've been down
To the bottom of every bottle
These five words in my head
Scream Are we having fun yet?
Yet?, Yet?, Yet?, no no

It's not like you didn't know that
I said I love you and I swear I still do
It must have been so bad
'Cause living with me must have damn near
killed you

This is how you remind me
Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealin'
Tired of livin' like a blind man
I'm sick of sight without a sense of feelin
And this is how you remind me

This is how you remind me
Of what i really am
This is how you remind me
Of what i really am

It's not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
For handing you a heart worth breakin'
and I've been wrong, i've been down
Been to the bottom of every bottle
These five words in my head
Scream "Are we having fun yet?"
yet, yet, yet, no no}x2

It's not like you didn't know that

Of what i really am

This is how you remind me
Of what i really am
It's not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken

Been to the bottom of every bottle
These five words in my head

Yet, yet, yet, no no}x4
