Careless

(piano intro)

I tripped over the curb
On the way to work
Fell crashing to the ground
Tore a hole in my shirt

(step up)

Don't tell me to take it easy
Don't say i'm wasting all the times
When i've found it hard to take
I've got a horrible feeling deep inside

I feel like i'm making a big mistake
I've done another thing wrong
I've been careless

(kick up to instrumental chorus)

(filler)

I got angry again
Something else went wrong
I said 'I don't want to be your friend'
Told them to leave me alone

They ran off crying
As I was left
Picking up pieces

(step up)

Don't tell me to take it easy
Don't say i'm wasting all the times
When i've found it hard to take
I've got a horrible feeling deep inside

I feel like i'm making a big mistake
I've done another thing wrong
I've been careless

(kick up)

So careless

(filler)

Look at my life, it's a mess
And I can't handle the stress
Of my day-to-day
I've got scars all over me

Please don't tell me to chill out
When I see
Another nightmare of normal
Days for me

(step up)

Please don't tell me to take it easy
It's not so simple when all you can see
Is problems and sadness peering over me

(kick up)

Why won't you be my best friend
Stop me being so careless
Stop me relapsing again
Stop me being so stupid

(kick)

Stop me being so careless again

(filler then step up)

Please stop telling me
Don't you think I know
About all the mistakes I've made
Do you think that they're for show

It's not so easy
To pick yourself up
When the world is trying
To make you trip and fall

(filler)

I didn't realise
That you think
This is fame
going to my head

(step up)

Don't tell me to take it easy
Don't say i'm wasting all the times
When i've found it hard to take
I've got a horrible feeling deep inside

My whole life feels like a big mistake
Knowing that makes it hard to take
That i'm so careless

(filler)

When will I stop throwing it all away
Stop myself from being careless
Time after time
Day after day

When will I stop throwing it all away
Stop myself from being careless
Time after time
Day after day

When will I stop throwing it all away
Stop myself from being careless
Time after time
Day after day

When will I stop throwing it all away
Stop myself from being careless
Time after time
Day after day

(just music then fade)
