Another Bad Mistake

By Larry Winemiller


Verse 1

Cryin’ and starin’ at my phone

scared to hear his angry voice

Love don’t involve a broken bone

I’ve had enough, I have no choice

not fallin’ for his come home lies

like so many, many times before

I’ve given this far too many tries

he won’t lay a hand on me no more



Chorus

Abused, battered, neglected

too much bad history to awake

Who I am has been affected

too much emotion is at stake

He’s been rightfully rejected

no more foolish heart to break

A bad mistake not corrected

is just another bad mistake


Verse 2

Got my whole life in the car I own

I know for sure, I’m not goin’ back

Gotta get far from this battle zone

gotta prevent another brutal attack

Starin’ hard in my rear view mirror

I watch his twisted love fade away

My new future may not seem clear

but I’ll live to love again someday



Chorus

Abused, battered, neglected

too much bad history to awake

Who I am has been affected

too much emotion is at stake

He’s been rightfully rejected

no more foolish heart to break

A bad mistake not corrected

is just another bad mistake



Bridge


He keeps textin' my phone

no more painful memories

I’m better off on my own

no violent ego to appease


Repeat Chorus
