Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Better luck next time, I'm adding up loose change
And I know well enough to realize I'm forever waiting
On something that will not ever come, ever come
[Chorus]
Are we ever gonna learn, ever gonna learn, ever gonna learn?
Run as quick as you can, take a look and you're just kicking up dirt, dirt
[Verse 2]
I am good with keeping up, bad with promises to myself
I keep on holding on, though I know well enough
I am too impatient for something that will not ever come, ever come
[Chorus]
Well, you have got a lot of nerve, got a lot of nerve, got a lot of nerve
Every time you make your point, a couple minutes, and you're eating your words
Now you have lent me your teeth, but I bet that you are sinking them first
Tell me that you're my friend, but you're really just waiting on a turn, turn
[Bridge]
You held onto me like I was frozen sky, oh
And you tell me soft nothings, hard edges underneath
I just can't be the one, be the one
[Chorus]
Well, I don't know what you've heard, but it's none of your, none of your concern
We're playing it cool, we have always been smooth talkers
And if your mouth moves quicker than your head, you're gonna get yourself hurt
You have got a lot of nerve, got a lot of nerve, got a lot of nerve, nerve
