Fool me once, I'll forgive and forget you I'll reach back and I'll pull out your knife And use it to cut you out of my life Lie, lie to the ones you love And forget to be true to yourself Don't you get tired of starting fires- Under the guise of someone else? Someone you can't believe you've let yourself become No matter how low you sink, you'll never defeat me At my worst I'm the best you'll ever be You brought this on yourself Revenge is a dish best served to the weak You can run, you can hide your life away I see it in your eyes You hate what you see looking back in the mirror's clarity The measure of a man is obsolete When you don't compete with those who sleep In a bed they made of misery Stand on your own two feet Oh, your ego is shameless You're in over your head Hiding your heart is like faking your own death You'll live a lie until you choke on your last breath You're not as as clever as you'd need to be To keep any secrets from me You crave the abuse and it's sickening to me You can run, you can hide your life away I see it in your eyes You hate what you see looking back in the mirror's clarity The measure of a man is obsolete When you don't compete with those who sleep In a bed they made of misery Stand on your own two feet Even if you're standing alone (Standing alone) You can always find your way back home (Way back home) But you've been lost for so long (Lost for so long) The hope for the hopeless is gone, yeah You can run, you can hide your life away I see it in your eyes You hate what you see looking back in the mirror's clarity The measure of a man is obsolete When you don't compete with those who sleep In a bed they made of misery Stand on your own two feet (Stand on your own two feet)
