lyrics

Learning Experience
Well I’m just a child, naïve and idealistic
Yet to be challenged, yet too be tested.
I’ve got no regrets and the worlds still in front of me.
Any mistakes that I make
I’ll explain them all away
Calling them part of a learning experience.
And if I grow up to be a cynical adult
On the verge of midlife crisis with each ever fading year
And a skeptical perception
conditioned by disappointment.
And as I’m falling out,
Falling away,
I’ll be singing songs of faithlessness.
And when I’m sick and old and I’m living in a home,
And the realization hits me: my ambitions were in vain,
And I begin to redefine
giving up as acceptance.
And as I reminisce about my younger days,
I’ll be wasting away on regrets
As I’m tortured by whether or not
If the only way to learn is from mistakes….

And when my bodies a corpse
Pickled in flamaldehyde
And my spirit hangs suspended
round the stone above my head
I might linger awhile just to see how I was remembered.
And as I’m fading out
Fading away
I’ll be singing songs of faithlessness.
