Learn My Lesson

Tonight the sunset means so much The one thing that you know you'll never touch Like the feeling, the real thing I reach out for that sweet dream But somehow the darkness wakes me up I've felt this emptiness before But all the times that I've been broken I still run around back for more You'd think that I'd learn my lesson by now You'd think that I'd somehow figure out That if you strike the match You're bound to feel the flame You think that I'd learn the cost of love Paid that price long enough But still I drive myself right through the pain Yeah, well it turns out, I haven't learned a thing Sometimes I think I'm better off To turn out the lights and close up shop And give up the longing, believing in belonging Just hold down my head and take the loss You'd think that I'd learn my lesson by now You'd think that I'd somehow figure out That if you strike the match You're bound to feel the flame You think that I'd learn the cost of love Paid that price long enough But still I drive myself right through the pain Yeah, well it turns out, I haven't learned a thing
