Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Our battles are repetitious

if not broken poetry

And maybe that's the attraction

that you're as self-absorbed as me

You jumped to the conclusion and landed on my chest

Now how am I supposed to make you see

I’ll just write this down with hopes that you'll understand

I will no longer be disciplined by the frustrations of an insecure man

And while I kissed your face you'll know that I will no longer apologize for your former

mistakes

My past is mine to keep

Now who are you to question me

Perhaps, someday you'll learn

too bad it's not our turn

You jumped to the conclusion and landed on my chest

Now how am I supposed to make you see

I’ll just write this down with hopes that you'll understand

I will no longer be disciplined by the frustrations of an insecure man

And while I kissed your face you'll know that I will no longer apologize for your former

mistakes

You set the standard for my future

You set the standard for my future (lovers)

You set the standard for my future

You set the standard for my future (lovers) x4

You set the standard

I’ll just write this down with hopes that you'll understand

I will no longer be disciplined by the frustrations of an insecure man

And while I kissed your face you'll know that I will no longer apologize for your former

mistakes mistakes

I will write this down

Former lovers' mistakes
