Lyrics

Senseless Thing
Copyright 2003 Paul Hayes BMI

You had many options open but you didn't have a notion.
If you thought for just a minute, well it might not have come true.
I was so shocked when i heard it that I tried to disbelieve it
'cause I knew you weren't stupid.
What a senseless thing to do.

I think you really did it this time.
I don't know what got into you.
You think you're clever but you'll never realize
that clever isn't in it, what a senseless thing to do...

You can make your own mistakes for however long it takes
until you learn the lessons you can only teach yourself.
I can't make excuses for you, wave a red flag out before you
as you're walking down the street.
No, I can't save you from yourself.

...Chorus

Now you want to wash your hands cause you still can't
understand,
and you haven't realized that things will never be the same.
You might think it oh-so cruel when your friends call you a fool.
And you say the world's against you, and you are not to blame.

...Chorus
