"Wrong Thinking"

Is this a state that you can't controlOr don't you care who you're talking toEach time when things get out of handWhy it's the same thing you always doYou start to point out other people's mistakesSometimes you even show contemptHow come the way you exclude yourselfCan't you see that you're not exempt?
Wrong thinking gets the better of youIt only takes a moment or twoComes stealin' like a thief in the nightChanges every little thing in sightWrong thinking gets the better of you.
Well it's the same old thing that happensEvery time you react that wayTomorrow you'll want to forgetEverything you said todayBut everytime something reminds youYou play the same old game insideAny excuse in the book will doEverything can be justified.
Wrong thinking gets the better of youIt only takes a moment or twoComes stealin' like a thief in the nightChanges every little thing in sightWrong thinking gets the better of youBetter of you. Gets the better of you.
