Lyrics
Shouldn't want to be
what they say I never could
Shouldn't want to be so dark and misunderstood
Or always want to be somewhere else
Like some exotic city
Or to turn things upside down
When they're sitting so pretty
But I, I,I ,I can't help myself (3)
Should've learned to leave
well enough alone
Shouldn't want to be so far in the zone
Or to let you rent my heart
So you can tear it to pieces
Then you just walk away
And I don't know where the lease is
But I, I, I, I, I can't help myself (4)
Shouldn't be wasting time
Or always be crossing a line
Should've learned all those lessons
Shouldn't ask so many questions
Or should I?
And I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I
Shouldn't repeat myself
Shouldn't always want more than enough
Got no room for all th
at stuff
Shouldn't always fall for those angel eyes
Or maybe I should
It wouldn't be a surprise
But I, I, I, I, I can't help myself (4)
Walking a line
And wasting time
Can't help myself
