I thought i had handles on this
I could soften my guard behind false confidence
Just when I found humble pie insipid
Exempt from this blind side and firmly in its grip
Cause I'm secuded by reaction and under the influence
CHORUS
I'm slipping again
I'm up to old tricks
Off my wagon
I have no defense
I'm wreaking havoc.
Wreaking havoc and consequence
I get reduced by my own willfulness
As I reach for my usual God-replacements
'Cause I am rich with sanction
I'm lax in my steps
CHORUS
BRIDGE
If forgiveness is understanding than I
Affirm Mia Culpa for the millionth time
From this toppling house of cards of mine
I am beaten by my impulsiveness
By this uncanny foreshadowing of regret
'Cause I'm repulsed by restriction
At least that's my excuse
