Same Situation

I went and I broke my love today
Opened my hand and dropped away
I wish that I knew which way was real
And which way wouldn’t let me heal

It figures I’d walk this road again
It’s part of the lonely man I am
Waiting for traffic lights to change
And bring this love home today
A foolish rhyme to say
But half of why I sing this way

It’s the same situation
That’s teaching me how to fall
I need a new revelation
To keep me going through it all

I thought that I gave up feeling down
Closed up shop and left this town
It’s funny how a girl can pull the strings
And send me back to giving in

One of these days the game will end
And I will be holding on instead
Till then I can only open doors
And hope that love can show me more
Than where I’ve been before
And why I should believe anymore

It’s the same situation
That’s teaching me how to fall
I need a new revelation
To keep me going through it all
It’s the same complication
That’s showing what I haven’t learned
I need a new resolution
To keep my love from getting burned again

Don’t take for granted
These chances to try
Sometimes our weakness
Is what keeps us alive
Tear off your armor
Let your heart take its place
And love today

It’s the same situation
That’s teaching me how to fall
I need a new revelation
To keep me going through it all
It’s the same complication
That’s showing what I haven’t learned
I need a new resolution
To keep my love from getting burned again
