I Told Myself Lyrics

    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 shouldn't be too hard
    I know it's over got to elevate, disregard

    Chorus:
    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 did it again
    This was supposed to be the last time
    I told myself, this wouldn't happen again
    I told myself I wouldn't let you back in
    But here I am dialing, trying

    I told myself to get a hold of 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 ahold of 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 holds me to you
    I told myself to get a hold of 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

    (Chorus)

    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 comes 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
    I told myself, I wouldn't let you back in
    But here I am dialing, tryin
