The wrong way

I've seen you bite your nails in guilty thought
Thought you couldn't care less till i saw those paws
Let's say you took a bite for every lie you told
You'd have run out of fingers and started on your toes

Don't think you're on to something good
So let's go back to the starting place

And i believe in futures but i can't afford to wait
You've been doing it the wrong way
And someday you'll find something that makes you feel okay
Until then you make your own way

You're the type of girl who puts on cyanide perfume
Then asks for kisses on the neck from every boy in the room
So tell me now how you find yourself at the bottom of the bottle in a bar
And how your reflection reacts to you and your new scars

I don't think you're on to something good right now
I don't think you're on to something good right now
So let's go back to the starting place

And i believe in futures but i can't afford to wait
You've been doing it the wrong way
And someday you'll find something that makes you feel okay
Until then you make your own way

All's well that ends well
I'm finished with this game
There's got to be a better way than
Learning from your mistakes
A small step for man now
With you out of the way
Now it's up for me to change
And make it so the moral starts today

And i believe in futures but i can't afford to wait
You've been doing it the wrong way
And someday you'll find something that makes you feel okay
Until then you make your own way
