Vivid as you are
You're taking things too far
I always thought
That you were in control
But no
Here is how it goes
I want everyone to know that
All it takes
Are one or two mistakes
That drive you mad
I have given everything I've got
I'll take it back
Looking out for no one
But yourself
It ain't that bad
The thing is I have grown
I don't need to take this
No more
Excuses that will
Only hunt you down
Here is how it goes
