Rewrite History

Well, look in here, it's getting old You become too complicated to hold, love and leave And the lies around your face from laughing at me Won't be replaced with any kindness that you show And he still wants you back But he wears a wedding ring So you creep in through the shadow Just to hear a caged bird sing And you do what you want to And you do what you can And when it can't be undone You rewrite history over and over and over again And you might change your face (ooh-ooh-ooh) Just to save your name You might take her place But you won't take the blame It's the same old story in each new catastrophe Well, you run in, and you run out of answers And you rewrite history (rewrite history) Over and over again (again) And I can't call you old (ooh-ooh-ooh) You see, you got no telephone And then you write me your letter And you're a thousand miles from home And you do what you want to And you do what you can And when it can't be undone You rewrite history over and over and over again
