Learning Myself Lyrics

Tried to wish on it, parents think I'm in denial

Lost the finer things, the kids at school cling to a bible

I took my attitude and tried to wash it with a solvent

It still clings to me, it seems again I've broke my promise

I broke a promise, I broke a promise

I'll follow your lead but I know too well

It's taking me back to learning myself

I'll do what I can before I go down

It's taken me back, I'm trapped in this hell

I'll go out for the night, paint a face, coat it in lacquer

Try my best to stay, but it only makes me sadder

I'm looking for the house with red balloons strapped to the mailbox

And if I show up late, well bad directions aren't my fault

They aren't my fault, aren't my fault

I'll follow your lead, but I know too well

It's taking me back to learning myself

I'll do what I can before I go down

It's taken me back, I'm trapped in this hell
