Tame Impala - New Person, Same Old Mistakes (Lyrics)

Tame Impala - New Person, Same Old Mistakes
I can just hear them now
"How could you let us down?"
But they don't know what I found
Or see it from this way 'round
Feeling it overtake
All that I used to hate
One by one, every trait
I tried, but it's way too late
All the signs I don't read
Two sides of me can't agree
Will I be in too deep?
Going with what I always longed for
Feel like a brand new person
(But you'll make the same old mistakes)
Well, I don't care, I'm in love
(Stop before it's too late)
Feel like a brand new person
(But you'll make the same old mistakes)
I finally know what it's like
(You don't have what it takes)
(Stop before it's too late)
(I know there's too much at stake)
(Making the same mistakes)
And I still don't know why it's happening
(Stop while it's not too late)
And I still don't know
Finally taking flight
I know you don't think it's right
I know that you think it's fake
Maybe fake's what I like
The point is, I have the right
Not thinking in black and white
I'm thinking it's worth a fight
Soon I'll be out of sight
Knowing it all this time
Going with what I always longed for
Feel like a brand new person
(But you'll make the same old mistakes)
Well, I don't care, I'm in love
(Stop before it's too late)
Feel like a brand new person
(But you'll make the same old mistakes)
So how do I know I've gone too far?
(You don't have what it takes)
(Stop before it's too late)
Man, I know that it's hard to digest
But maybe your story ain't so different from the rest
And I know it seems wrong to accept
But you've got your demons, and she's got her regrets
Man, I know that it's hard to digest
A realization is as good as a guess
And I know it seems wrong to accept
But you've got your demons, and she's got her regrets
But you've got your demons, and she's got her regrets
Feel like a brand new person
So how will I know that it's right?
In a new direction
So, how will I know I've gone too far?
(Stop thinking that the only option)
Feel like a brand new person
I finally know what it's like
(Stop thinking that the only option)
In a new direction
So how will I know I've gone too far?
(Stop thinking that the only option)
And I don't know how to describe
(Stop thinking that the only option)
So how will I know that it's right?

Man i love lyric videos I uzed to never understand why people watched them but damn it really helps me embrace the lyrics and with this song its like a story of my self and i love it

[@24hoursofgaming78]

This song perfectly describes what I went through with breaking up. Had a fun couple of months with a girl but we ended on good terms due to our differences, however, we go in the same class. And seeing her again had these “two sides of me” arguing back and forth constantly. “Talk to her, take her back” “leave her, you weren’t meant to be”. Two sides that ultimately made me self sabotage and ruin any chance of us actually being something again. Grown as a person, but yes, afraid to make the same old mistakes with a new one

Man, I know that it's hard to digest But maybe you story ain't so different from the rest. That shit hit deep. I always though that I was different from the others, but in the end we all end up at the same messed up place, trying to become a new person.

just like many other people have commented before, i really relate to this song's lyrics. especially the double-mind concept. its sort of like im two people. i feel like my body isnt my own, either. it spasms sometimes like it has a mind of its own. just like now. its actively stopping my fingers from typing. like something is pulling me back.

[@si9nt]

When everything changed and things it's not the same anymore I'm not the same person that used to take pressure of others people's mistakes or even can handle with the way they treat me wrong, now I feel it's hard to ignore their behavior anymore and it's like a sign to me like they're trying to hurt me, I spend months can't make a single move (and I know that I'm scared of that because my other self trys to save me bc I had a strong truma)cuz I judge alots and hard to control but at the same time I still feel like nothing changed I still do the same old mistakes I still don't know how to fix that

This songs represents me literally, being a drug addict, i feel bad for letting my parents, friends down, but they really don’t know that drugs aren’t just substances they’re a lifestyle, another dimension, once you start abusing you’ll never be able to see the world the same again, i’m trying to quit but i guess it’s just too late, two sides of me can’t agree, the side that wants to get freed and be healthy, and the other that wants to escape reality and just drown in pleasure and euphoria, every time i quit i feel like a brand new person but then i say maybe just one more time wouldn’t hurt then i repeat the same old mistakes, i just don’t care because I’m totally in love with the substances, and i can’t stop before it’s too late, maybe i couldn’t accept reality and maybe fake is what i like

[@kakashihatake6176]

When it comes to drugs there is never "just one more and l will be fine" it should he "just one more and l will waste it all" watch the video "trauma revenge and redemption" when you have some time, it envolves heavy triggering topics but is an interesting one about substance abuse to cope out with the realities of life

I feel like chasing that rainbow sometimes leads to the pot of gold but in the end, is the finality worth the energy? The only way to know is to take the chance.

The realization that it’s the only option Big realization song dedicated to me from my ex. Point taken
