Diving in the Deep End Lyrics
Why should it be,
Someone like me,
Could make the same mistakes again?
Havent I learned,
People get hurt,
When they go diving in the deep end,
In the deep end,
In the deep end,
In the deep end.
Thought I was smart,
Controlling the art,
Of turning off my intuition,
Haven't I seen,
Since I was 14,
That life is all just repetition.
You loose all your whim,
You sink or you swim,
When you go diving in the deep end,
In the deep end,
In the deep end,
In the deep end.
Now it's time to realise,
You dont have to agonise,
You dont have to compromise,
But the one thing you must do is open your eyes,
Your eyes,
Your eyes.
Why should it be,
Someone like me,
Could make the same mistakes again,
Havent I learned,
People get hurt,
When they go diving,
Diving,
Diving,
Diving ... (repeat and fade vocals, then cut.)

Similar to Beauty on the Fire. About losing your balance.
Absolutly beautiful song. I loved it from the moment i heard it.
I think it's about her taking a huge risk on something when others probably told her not to and her gut probably did too, but she did it anyway and now she is saying she should have kept her eyes opened and realized that this was not going to be a good idea.
I think she is saying that she has made these bad decisions before and is annoyed she made them again.
I think this song is about being constantly disappointed by love, but continuing to risk everything to try to find it. She is saying that despite her better judgement she is going to take a chance on this new person she has acquired feelings for, but she is once again disappointed. She's been dating around since she was 14 and it's still the same old thing after all this time, after becoming an adult, nothing is changing, she is still continuing to experience disappointment after disappointment.
