I should know better
And indeed, I do
But yet, I don’t know better
And, I know I should
I should know better
But I do the opposite
Fully aware
I’m not doing better
It’s the same old story
Time should know better
But it cheats me
As I can’t rewind
Here I go again
I look in the mirror
Shame shows its face
But shame knows no shame
I should know better
But there I go again
Next time I will do better
Until I don’t

Not to get spooky religious on you, but that poem is a bit reminiscent of something written by the apostle Paul… I think in the book of Romans.
