I Don't Learn
Sometimes It's easy to forget how far I've come
Sometimes I take it all for granted
Well that's my mistake
But how could I dare forget the place I came from
With all that I've preached and ranted
Well that's my mistake
Sometimes I put off the the things that matter in the end
Sometimes I'm convinced it's whats best
Well that's my mistake
When did a crowded scheduled first overrule a friend
Working too hard to play or rest
Well that's my mistake
Sometimes I get angry over things I can't control
Sometimes I take it out on you
Well that's my mistake
Whatever happened to" it's okay" and "go with the roll"
I hoped you would know what to do
Well that's my mistake
Sometimes things happen and I just don't learn
Sometimes the past repeats its self
The same old mistakes
I thought in life there was experience you earn
Knowledge like trophies on a shelf
But no, just mistakes
Sometimes I take it all for granted
Well that's my mistake
But how could I dare forget the place I came from
With all that I've preached and ranted
Well that's my mistake
Sometimes I put off the the things that matter in the end
Sometimes I'm convinced it's whats best
Well that's my mistake
When did a crowded scheduled first overrule a friend
Working too hard to play or rest
Well that's my mistake
Sometimes I get angry over things I can't control
Sometimes I take it out on you
Well that's my mistake
Whatever happened to" it's okay" and "go with the roll"
I hoped you would know what to do
Well that's my mistake
Sometimes things happen and I just don't learn
Sometimes the past repeats its self
The same old mistakes
I thought in life there was experience you earn
Knowledge like trophies on a shelf
But no, just mistakes
