Lyrics

I mean, what else was I supposed to say?

Woah

Yeah you gotta learn you’re gonna get what’s gonna come

Woah

Yeah you gotta learn you’re gonna get what’s gonna come

Sometimes dropping a bomb of truth

Cuts to the heart like a sabertooth

So why should I be bothered to make a move

When you only do the things you think you’re told to do (hey)

You’re like a shadow on my wall tryin to pick a fight

Like a dog barking louder cause it couldn’t bite

Like a king needs a pawn to see his crown is tight

But while you’re sleeping on your bishop I’ll be working knights

The shimmer of your lie’s the glimmer in my eyes

How beautifully it’s turned

I didn’t even need to light a single match

I just let you crash and burn

You say you want me to listen

Cause you’re trying to speak

But your words never say enough

So even if you scream

I won’t know what you need

But if you could listen

You’d finally get to know

What you need to prove to me you’re more than blood and bones

Don’t hold me to rules

That you don’t follow too

Now you’re sayin that you’ll leave

But if you really wanna leave

Go ahead and leave

Woah

Yeah you gotta learn you’re gonna get what’s gonna come

I use to think back just how good it looked

Til you burned every page of our story book

Now I know you’re to blame for the toll it took

So I’ll let your fire burn til your overcooked

All the bloodstains marking me from what was done

Were a timebomb waiting for the clock to run

If you let it get away as you’re gettin some

Then you gotta learn you gonna get whats gonna come.

I know you’re tryna play it down, tellin me

How beautifully it’s turned

But I don’t even think you really realize

How bad you’re gonna burn

You say I never listen

When you’re trying to speak

But your words don’t make sense enough

So even if you scream

I still can’t meet your need

Maybe if you’d listen

You’d finally get to know

What you really need to prove you’re more than blood and bones

Don’t hold me to rules

That you don’t follow too

And if you up and leave

Don’t come crawling back to me

Go ahead and leave

Woah

Yeah you gotta learn you’re gonna get what’s gonna come

I don’t expect you to fix what you’ve broken,

Too easy playing the victim instead

But you’ll be exposed when it’s out in open

With nowhere to run from what’s coming ahead

You can’t expect me to sit back and take it

I’m finally learning and putting me first

Letting you sleep in the bed, you’ve been making

I won’t feel guilty for finding the words

And for feeling relief when you see how it hurts

You say you want me to listen

Cause you’re trying to speak

But your words never say enough

So even if you scream

I won’t know what you need

But if you could listen

You’d finally get to know

What you need to prove to me you’re more than blood and bones

Don’t hold me to rules

That you don’t follow too

Cause you’re not gonna listen

When I’m trying to speak

So my words will never be enough

And even if I scream

I still can’t make you see

That if you’d only listen

You’d finally get to know

What you really need to prove you’re more than blood and bones

Don’t hold me to rules

That you don’t follow too

And when you up and leave

Don’t come crawling back to me

Go ahead and leave

Woah

Yeah you gotta learn you’re gonna get what’s gonna come

Woah

Yeah you gotta learn you’re gonna get what’s gonna come

And it’s gonna come…
