When you treat your love like capital you’re the only one on your mind
You invest in the ones who’ll give you the steadiest footing for your climb
Like a shirt that catches your eye; you decide to try it on
But if the pattern ain’t working for you or the cut is all wrong
You can try a new one, any time you want, anytime you want
When you realize the ways you’ve chosen
have left things charred instead of glowing
And the best that you can do is look away
The truth is that you caused the fall, then you just as soon forgot it all
Left that trail of smouldering remains
Like deciding to take a new way home on the weekday in the eve
You just get off an exit early and drive the rest of the way in the streets
You can go a new way, anytime you want, anytime you want
You can go a new way, anytime you want, anytime you want
You make it sound so easy, easy; you make it sound so easy to change your mind
When you realize the words you’ve chosen have left things
Scarred instead of growing; and the best that you can do is run away
You swore that you’d be liable until a loss seemed undeniable
Left that trail of wreckage in your wake
Like deciding to take a new way home on the weekday in the eve
You just get off an exit early and drive the rest of the way in the streets
You can go a new way, anytime you want, anytime you want
You can go a new way, anytime you want, anytime you want
You make it sound so easy, easy, you make it sound so easy to change your mind
