New Person, Same Old Mistakes

Tame Impala

6

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 around

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)

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)

I finally know what it's like

(You don't have what it takes)

(Stop before it's not 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

I'm thinking it's worth the fight

Soon to 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)

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 if it's right?

(You don't have what it takes)

(Stop before it's not 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

And 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)

Feel like a brand new person

I finally know what it's like

(Stop thinking that the only option)

So how will I know I've gone too far?

(Stop thinking that the only option)

And I know it's hard to describe

(Stop thinking that the only option)

So how will I know that it's right?
