Learn My Lesson

I'm a wavering candle light I remain but I'm ever slight Through all my years I sit In my room in the fading light Righting back all my wrongs tonight Cos I'm still here Boarded up all the doors And I swallowed all the keys I'm still haunted by All the things I'll never be To live Is to learn Oh the heart's a heavy burden So I take I don't wait Nothing ever is for certain And I hold my hands up high On my knees tonight I'll take Won't wait I will live and learn my lesson here tonight I, never knew it could be so cold But I burnt all the things I used to hold so dear Still I fight With my pen in my hand held tight Writing protest songs tonight cos I'm still here Boarded up all the doors And I swallowed all the keys I'm still haunted by All the things I'll never be To live Is to learn Oh the heart's a heavy burden So I take I don't wait Nothing ever is for certain And I hold my hands up high On my knees tonight I'll take Won't wait I will live and learn my lesson here tonight I will live and learn my lesson
