1. If You Repeat
2. Un-natural Selection (New acoustic Version)

The first of the year long cavalcade of digital singles from ButterflyPolite.

lyrics

If you repeat
A word of what was said then you'll
Live to regret it or be dead instead of free.
The truth will not release you, unfortunately.

If you take it to the grave
You'll be doing us both a favour
Play these memory games, or do it again.

If I repeat the same mistakes again
I'd need to clear my name or die of shame
The pain remains
Internal bleeding is leaving me drained.

If you take it to the grave
You'll be doing us both a favour
Play these memory games, or do it again.

We swim around
Our goldfish bowl evolved yet still we drowned
Until we found that seven seconds later
We meet and make the same mistakes
That are greatly over-rated lately.

If you repeat
As I reiterate
Is it too late to swallow the words you breathe
These hollow deeds will asphyxiate me.

If you take it to the grave
You'll be doing us both a favour
Play these memory games
And don't be afraid
To do it again.
