Lyrics
Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealin'
Tired of livin' like a blind man
I'm sick of sight without a sense of feelin'
And this is how you remind me

This is how you remind me of what I really am
This is how you remind me of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry
I was waitin' on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
For handin' you a heart worth breakin'
And I've been wrong
I've been down
Been to the bottom of every bottle
These five words in my head scream
Are we havin' fun yet?

Yet, yet, yet, no no
Yet, yet, yet, no no

It's not like you didn't know that
I said I love you and I swear I still do
And it must have been so bad
'Cause livin' with me must have damn near killed you

And this is how you remind me of what I really am
This is how you remind me of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry
I was waitin' on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
For handin' you a heart worth breakin'
And I've been wrong
I've been down
Been to the bottom of every bottle
These five words in my head, scream
Are we havin' fun yet?

Yet, yet, yet, no no
Yet, yet, yet, no no
Yet, yet, yet, no no
Yet, yet, yet, no no

Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealin'
And this is how you remind me
This is how you remind me

This is how you remind me of what I really am
This is how you remind me of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry
I was waitin' on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
For handin' you a heart worth breakin'
And I've been wrong
I've been down
Been to the bottom of every bottle
These five words in my head, scream
Are we havin' fun yet?

Yet, yet
Are we havin' fun yet?
Yet, yet
Are we havin' fun yet?
Yet, yet
Are we havin' fun yet?
Yet, yet, no, no
