she wallows in her misery
what made her think that this would be
that this would be any different
from the first mistake she made
still she dove without a care
for the second time around she`ll pay
and wallow in her misery
the first to fail the last to flee
she thought she`d figured out the answer
to some long forgotten page
from some long forgotten book
on how to get her own way
i`ve tried and tried to tell her
it`s not what you do
it`s what you`ve done
with what you did
i`ve tried to tell her
she wallows in her misery
a failure at failure she fails to see
that this overacted part
from this never-ending play
is just her substitute
for reality anyway
i`ve tried and tried to tell her
it`s not what you do
it`s what you`ve done
with what you did
i`ve tried to tell her
