Lyrics
0:19Picked up on the wrong scent
0:20Not gonna make a dent
0:21How many times
0:22Are you in my rhymes
0:23Burn me once shame on thee
0:25But burn me again shame on me
0:27I'm chasing and facing the point misplacing
0:29When I think of you my mind's racing
0:31I'm spacing out when I get to the point
0:33Of no return I get burned
0:35I told myself I'm through with you
0:37The last thing that I'll ever do
0:39Let down my guard shoudln't be too hard
0:41I know it's over got to elevate disregard
0:43I can't believe I fell for it but did it again
0:47I told myself I'm gonna quit but did it again
0:51I can't believe I fell for it but did it again
0:55I told myself I'm gonna quit but
0:59This was supposed to be the last time
1:05I told myself this wouldn't happen again
1:13I told myself I wasn't ever going to call you
1:21I told myself I wasn't going to let you back in
1:27But here I am dialing trying
1:34I told myself to get a hold myself
1:36I won't freak out let you tweak out
1:38On ecstacy not next to me
1:40Somethin tells me baby girl that you're testin me
1:42I told myself to get a hold myself
1:44And I'm tryin' I'm not lyin'
1:46Don't make me mad you know I love you bad
1:48I want to sniff the glue that hold me to you
1:50I told myself to get a hold myself
1:52But don't rush me can't you trust me
1:54The sound I hear whenever you are near
1:56I know it's never wrong and it's my favorite song
1:58I can't believe I fell for it but did it again
2:02I told myself I'm gonna quit but did it again
2:06I can't believe I fell for it but did it again
2:10I told myself I'm gonna quit but
2:16This was supposed to be the last time
2:20I told myself this wouldn't happen again
2:28I told myself I wasn't ever going to call you
2:35I told myself I wasn't going to let you back in
2:42But here I am dialing trying
2:47And now it's all turned bad
2:53Turned bad turned bad
3:03Your ploy to make me jealous
3:07Is obvious and sad
3:11It has the opposite effect
3:15Now you're left with what you had
3:22You had
3:26The rain comes down as love turns to dust
3:30I was joking she took me serious
3:32The rain comed down as love turns to dust
3:35I was joking she took me serious
3:38Yes serious
3:40This was the last time that I was ever going to call you
3:46I told myself I wouldn't let you back in
3:52But here I am dialing trying
Picked up on the wrong scent Not gonna make a dent How many times Are you in my rhymes Burn me once shame on thee But burn me again shame on me I'm chasing and facing the point misplacing When I think of you my mind's racing I'm spacing out when I get to the point Of no return I get burned I told myself I'm through with you The last thing that I'll ever do Let down my guard shoudln't be too hard I know it's over got to elevate disregard I can't believe I fell for it but did it again I told myself I'm gonna quit but did it again I can't believe I fell for it but did it again I told myself I'm gonna quit but This was supposed to be the last time I told myself this wouldn't happen again I told myself I wasn't ever going to call you I told myself I wasn't going to let you back in But here I am dialing trying I told myself to get a hold myself I won't freak out let you tweak out On ecstacy not next to me Somethin tells me baby girl that you're testin me I told myself to get a hold myself And I'm tryin' I'm not lyin' Don't make me mad you know I love you bad I want to sniff the glue that hold me to you I told myself to get a hold myself But don't rush me can't you trust me The sound I hear whenever you are near I know it's never wrong and it's my favorite song I can't believe I fell for it but did it again I told myself I'm gonna quit but did it again I can't believe I fell for it but did it again I told myself I'm gonna quit but This was supposed to be the last time I told myself this wouldn't happen again I told myself I wasn't ever going to call you I told myself I wasn't going to let you back in But here I am dialing trying And now it's all turned bad Turned bad turned bad Your ploy to make me jealous Is obvious and sad It has the opposite effect Now you're left with what you had You had The rain comes down as love turns to dust I was joking she took me serious The rain comed down as love turns to dust I was joking she took me serious Yes serious This was the last time that I was ever going to call you I told myself I wouldn't let you back in But here I am dialing trying
