The Learning Curve Track

Don’t you know what you say to me?
Its okay ‘cause I guess you’ll say it anyway
Oh no, gone by, It’s another day
In this face, you know I’m wrong and you will disagree
Yeah but I know you’ll come back, its plain to see
I’ve got some things upon my mind
To and through, same routine, this daily grind
I know somehow I’ll get myself out of this bind

Why are you so ashamed?
When you don’t even know my name
You were so once famed
Everyone else has changed, but you’re still the same

Cornered in this round room
Hands up, chain me down, turn around, I surrender
I might as well; I can’t rid your image that looms
I’m running from my reflection in your chrome fender
It was my feelings that you wanted to groom
And those letter, I cried, I won’t send her
I confide to run from what your soul consumes
I’m tired of feeling like you’ve thrown me in a blender

Don’t be ashamed
I won’t forget your name
With me, you’ll always be famed
Remember, it was me who took all the blame

Rise and shine, tomorrows a new day
A step forward to when you’ll see me again
These life lessons learned that I’ve stored in a bin
Through the turnpike, don’t look back to yesterday
I might think of you when I look out on the oceans’ bay
When I’ve but grown out of this spite
It’s alright, these mistakes that I write in hindsight
I’m ready, its time, to go out and fight

It had to go through
I was not ready
Tired of relying on you
Ready for what’s soon to be
