The Wrong Way

Don't take this the wrong way

But you will never get

The satisfaction you desire

This is not a punishment

It's just a simple fact

When you try to find your happiness

In someone who can't give it back

You'll get burned

And after one time

Most would just say lesson learned

But you keep

Holding on

Hope you'll break him down

But you're the one who's breaking now

Don't be so naive

Don't be so naive

It was only a dream

How could you ever believe

It was real

Do you still believe in fairy tales, too

Oh but don't take this the wrong way

I'm not trying to put you down

You've been doing that well on your own

Living by the modern martyr's philosophy

If you can't get love, get sympathy yeah

Honestly, do you really need

Somebody to put you on your knees

You can take the fall

But you're afraid to walk again

Or will you break if you bend

Don't be so naive

Don't be so naive

It was only a dream

How could you ever believe it

Don't be so naive

Don't be so naive

It was just make-believe

Stop deceiving yourself

And grow up, grow up

I am not impossible

And you are not a dream

Nothing can compare

To getting high on self-esteem

Maybe I'll be your regret

But you will not be my mistake

You are just a lesson

I refuse to learn until I

Break

Walk away, walk away, walk away
