Lyrics

(VERSE 1)
Your love?s got me
In a fog
I can?t seem to
Carry on
Like the sane person
I use to be
Before I met you
Back when I was still free

(CHORUS)
I keep doing the same things
Over and over
Trying to get
Different results
But I?m losing my mind
Every time you say you love me
You?ve got me living in a
Functioning insanity

(VERSE 2)
I keep thinking
Maybe you?ll change
This time will be different
But it?s always the same
I care for you
More than you?ll know
I pray that someday I?ll learn
How to let go

(CHORUS)
I keep doing the same things
Over and over
Trying to get
Different results
But I?m losing my mind
Every time you say you love me
You?ve got me living in a
Functioning insanity

(BRIDGE)
What?s the point
If I can?t control myself
I know it?s wrong
But I just keep taking you back

Never thought I?d be
The one who would be so foolish
Matters of the heart
Put my judgment under attack

(CHORUS)
I keep doing the same things
Over and over
Trying to get
Different results
But I?m losing my mind
Every time you say you love me
You?ve got me living in a
Functioning insanity

(CHORUS)
I keep doing the same things
Over and over
Trying to get
Different results
But I?m losing my mind
Every time you say you love me
You?ve got me living in a
Functioning insanity

(CHORUS)
I keep doing the same things
Over and over
Trying to get
Different results
But I?m losing my mind
Every time you say you love me
You?ve got me living in a
Functioning insanity

(CHORUS)
I keep doing the same things
Over and over
Trying to get
Different results
But I?m losing my mind
Every time you say you love me
You?ve got me living in a
Functioning insanity
