Alek Vila : Lyrics


Dumb Decisions

I'm living in a world of regret
these days–
driven to madness–
living in a haze.

I can’t tell a right from wrong.
How do I trust myself when I’m lost?
I’ve got “fool” stamped on my forehead–
yes I do.
I’ve got a huge mess to clean up,
and I don’t know where to begin...

because I’m all about dumb decisions.
I’m all about dumb decisions.
I’m all about dumb decisions.

I can’t believe how fast
the time is going by.
It seems like only yesterday
I was saying my goodbyes.
It’s not fair what I’m going through.
How could I know I’d be missing you?

Everyday is a reminder of what
could have been with you.
I’d be better off to give up
trying to always think things through...

because I’m all about dumb decisions.
I’m all about dumb decisions.
I’m all about dumb decisions.

Who’s crying now?
Sometimes it’s just
too late.
