Lately I've been walking all alone 
Through the wind and through the rain
Been walking through the streets 
And finding sweet relief 
In knowing that it won't be long
Lately it's occurred to me 
That I've had enough of that 
And lately I've been satisfied 
By simple things 
Like breathing in and breathing out

Never again, not in this life, 
Will I be taken twice
Never again, never on your life, 
Will I make that same mistake
I can't make it twice

Lately it's occurred to me 
Exactly what went wrong
I realized I compromised, 
I sacrificed far too much 
For far too long

Never again, not in this life, 
Will I be taken twice
Never again, not on your life, 
Will I make that same mistake
I can't make it twice 
Starting out from here today, 
Swear I'm gonna change my ways
Once mistaken in this life 
But never twice

Never again, not in this life, 
Will I be taken twice
Never again, never on your life, 
Will I make that same same mistake. 
I can't make it twice
Starting out from here today...
