Lesson Learned lyrics

Just another lesson learned

Wear a scar, a bore repeating

Take a simple fateful turn

Opened up to stop the bleeding

Feeling you never could

Been the disconnected frying

Hit the vein and struck a nerve

Seeing through a self that's blinding

Nowhere to buy in

Most of us hiding

Others are shining

You know when you find it

In your darkest hour, you strike gold

A thought clicks, not the be-all end-all

Just another lesson learned

Just another brick you toss

Stone the number one deceiver

Multiply the added cost

Easy to become a believer

Feeling like you never could

Been the disconnected frying

Hit the vein and struck a nerve

Seeing through a self that's blinding

Nowhere to buy in

Most of us hiding

Others are shining

You know when you find it

In your darkest hour, you strike gold

A thought clicks, not the be-all end-all

Just another lesson learned
