Lesson Learned
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Get what you see
What you thought was true
Its not really me
Speaking to you
Forget how you feel
Forget all your dreams
'Cause nothing is real
Its not how it seems
Forget what you've heard
And all that was said
Lines get blurred
Its all in your head
Forget what is right
Forget who you are
When you see the light
Its no longer a star
And we'll chalk it up to a lesson learned
And hopefully, by now you'll sense its every turn
And I guess its back to the drawing board
To revaluate the situation
And to put straighten to the situation
And wait for sanitation to be restored
Forget what you see
And what you think is true
Its not really me
Speaking to you
Uhhh, Uhhh, Uhhh, Uhhh (x4)
And we'll chalk it up to a lesson learned
And hopefully, by now you'll sense its every turn
And I guess its back to the drawing board
To recreate the conversation
With the lack of communication
It can't wait anymore
Sanity to be restored
Hmm, Hmmmmm
