Sometimes we get let down. This is a song about that.

I release music under the name pilgrim house. You can find full albums on band camp, and sometimes I put songs in a few other places:

Title: Same Mistakes

Stop me if you've heard this one before, 'cause I run my mouth and I'm getting older / So lucky and in love I could've robbed a bank, but you can't get far on a quarter tank.

The sun took her sweet time but it got dark / You weren't the first to break my heart / Keep striding flint to stone but there's no flame / We can't pretend we're still the same

You left me cold
Scattered pieces
Yeah I know
You had your reasons
My trust was wide but yours was thin
I won't make that mistake again

Left it all behind to sail the deep / I thought you'd always stand by me / Winds can change and I guess so can you / I know a lot less than I thought I knew

You left me cold
Scattered pieces
Yeah I know
You had your reasons
Our love was harder than it should've been
'Cause I made that same mistake again

Feels like my hands are broken / My lungs forget to breathe / I never learned to handle this level of defeat / Thought I could pull us through it / I thought you'd be there too / It never crossed my mind that giving up appealed to you

Most of who I am is where I been / Much to my old man's chagrin / Still I'm left to wonder if and when I'll ever give my heart away again / Will I ever give my whole heart to anything again?
