You say he's really different
From the other ones before
And he ain't gonna leave you
How can you be so sure?
Never back, not a single step
You got an overdose
Seventeen and pregnant
And still changin' guys like clothes
Man, you're really losing it
Just like your mother did
Bad examples turn out to be good ones, too
At least she showed you what you shouldn't do
You say it really feels okay
To lose control all night
This pain you lug around like stones
You keep it all inside
A glass of wine, just one more time
Prevents feelings of shame
The girl that groans on top of you
You just don't know her name
Man, you're really losing it
Just like your father did
You follow in misleading footsteps on and on
At least he showed you how to do it wrong
Man, you're really losing it
Just like your parents did
Bad examples turn out to be good ones, too
At least they showed you what you shouldn't do
Lonely hearts can't grow up well
A broken childhood turns to hell
It's not hard to miss a chance you never had
Generations stay the same
It's a never ending chain
Who to trust when there is just your mum and dad?
