Second Chance Lyrics

Happy birthday

How was your trip to the beach

I didn't call you

I like being out of your reach

I threw a party

Did not invite you to it

My friends all teased me

For my fear of commitment

I hope I never see you after tonight

I don't believe in permanence

I get scared when you treat me right

So don't give me a second chance

And don't believe a thing I say

You have a strange effect on me

You make me scramble all my words

I don't say what I mean

I had a little talk

The other day

My friend told me

Not to chase you away

Advice is easy to hear

But hard to take

I'm good at fucking up

When my joy's at stake

I hope I never see you after tonight

I don't believe in permanence

I get scared when you treat me right

So don't give me a second chance

And don't believe a word I say

You have a strange effect on me

You make me scramble all my words

I don't say what I mean

You disappear when I close my eyes

I don't know why I'm still surprised

So I never reach for your hand when I'm scared

Cause I'm worried I won't find you there

I said I'd never see you after tonight

I don't believe in permanence

But I've had some time to think

And I want a second chance
