New Person, Same Old Mistakes

I can just hear them now
How could you let us down?
But they don't know what I found
Or see it from this way round
Feeling it overtake
All that I used to hate
One by one, every trait
I tried, but it's way too late
All the signs I don't read
Two sides of me can't agree
Will I be in too deep
Going with what I always longed for?

Feel like a brand-new person (but you'll make the same old mistakes)
Well, I don't care, I'm in love (stop before it's too late, I know)
Feel like a brand-new person (but you'll make the same old mistakes)
I finally know what it's like (you don't have what it takes)
(Stop before it's too late, I know there's too much at stake)
(Making the same mistakes) and I still don't know why it's happening
(Stop while it's not too late) and I still don't know

Finally taking flight
I know you don't think it's right
I know that you think it's fake
Maybe fake's what I like
The point is, I have the right
Not thinking in black and white
Thinking it's worth the fight
Soon I'll be out of sight
Knowing it all this time
Going with what I always longed for

Feel like a brand-new person (but you'll make the same old mistakes)
Well, I don't care, I'm in love (stop before it's too late)
Feel like a brand-new person (but you'll make the same old mistakes)
So how do I know I've gone too far? (You don't have what it takes)
(Stop before it's too late)

Man, I know that it's hard to digest
But maybe your story ain't so different from the rest
And I know it seems wrong to accept
But you've got your demons and she's got her regrets

Man, I know that it's hard to digest
A realization is as good as a guess
And I know it seems wrong to accept
But you've got your demons and she's got her regrets
But you've got your demons and she's got her regrets

Feel like a brand-new person
So how will I know that it's right?
In a new direction
So how will I know I've gone too far?

(Stop thinking that the only option was) feel like a brand-new person
I finally know what it's like
(Stop thinking that the only option was) in a new direction
So how will I know I've gone too far?
(Stop thinking that the only option was)

And I know it's hard to describe
(Stop thinking that the only option was)
So how will I know that it's right?
