Mistaken (An Unexpected Desire for Redemption)

"Tell me are you lost,
Well I can help you find your way,"
That's my favorite opener
And it works on Saturdays
The pilsens of the lost
Go well with songs of the confused
When happy hour is over
Someone will have been abused
"We're going way too fast,"
Is what she won't have said to me
But if she does, then when I'm done
She'll sing a different key
And if she asks my motivation
I'll play the utter fool:
"I normally don't do this"
But when in fact I do

So tell me, myself
How do you fall asleep at night?
How can you call yourself a man,
Even as you're chasing another woman without a plan?

I'd have thought, I'd have thought
That the playing of the game
Would've got, would've gotten
Old to me by now
But apparently I'm mistaken
I'd have thought, I'd have thought
That experience by now
Would've taught, would've taught
Me better of your kind
But apparently I'm mistaken
