He broke my heart

And now it's raining, just don't rub it in

I'm at your door

I feel so crazy 'bout it

You'll say, "I told you so"

You saw it long ago

You knew he had to go

I finally came around

I'm back on solid ground

Can't let it get me down

Now

It's alright

It's alright

It's alright (it's alright)

It's alright (yeah)

It's alright (yeah)

It's alright

It's alright

Yes, I was burned

But I called it a lesson learned

Mistake overturned

So I called it a lesson learned

My soul has returned

So I call it a lesson learned

Another lesson learned

Sometimes some lies

Can take a minute to fully realize

His tears, your eyes

30 Seconds to apoligize

You give it one more chance

Just like the time before

But he already know

You'd give a hundred more

Until that night in bed

You wake up in a sweat

You're racing to the door

Can't take it anymore

I was burned

But I called it a lesson learned

Mistake overturned

So I called it lesson learned

My soul has returned

So I call it a lesson learned

Another lesson learned

A life perfect ain't perfect

If you don't know what the struggles for

Falling down ain't falling down

If you don't cry when you hit the floor

It's called "the past" 'cause I'm getting past

And I ain't nothing like I was before

You oughta see me now

Yes, I was burned

But I called it a lesson learned

Mistake overturned

So I called it lesson learned

My soul has returned

So I call it a lesson learned

Another lesson learned

Said, yes, I was burned

But I called it a lesson learned

Said, mistake overturned

So I called it lesson learned

My soul has returned

So I call it a lesson learned

Another lesson learned

It's alright

It's alright

It's alright
