[Intro] (x2) [Verse] Our battles are repetitious if not broken poetry And maybe that’s the attraction that you’re as self-absorbed as me [Pre-Chorus] You jumped to the conclusion and landed on my chest Now how am I supposed to make you see [Chorus] I’ll just write this down with hopes that you’ll understand I will no longer be disciplined by the frustrations of an insecure man And while I kissed your face you’ll know that I will no longer apologize for your former lovers’ mistakes [Interlude] (x2) [Verse] My past is mine to keep Now who are you to question me Perhaps someday you’ll learn Too bad it’s not our turn [Pre-Chorus] You jumped to the conclusion and landed on my chest Now how am I supposed to make you see [Chorus] I’ll just write this down with hopes that you’ll understand I will no longer be disciplined by the frustrations of an insecure man And while I kissed your face you’ll know that I will no longer apologize for your former lovers’ mistakes [Bridge] You set the standard for my future You set the standard for my future (lovers) You set the standard for my future You set the standard for my future (lovers) You set the standard for my future (lovers) You set the standard for my future (lovers) You set the standard for my future (lovers) You set the standard [Chorus] I’ll just write this down with hopes that you’ll understand I will no longer be disciplined by the frustrations of an insecure man And while I kissed your face you’ll know that I will no longer apologize for your former lovers’ mistakes I will write this down      Former lovers’ mistakes
