[00:00.00]Haven't Learned A Thing - Amy Speace
[00:21.42]I have failed and I have fallen
[00:23.45]
[00:24.61]Cried till I was bawling
[00:26.01]
[00:27.06]Been down so low my face was on the tiles
[00:30.16]
[00:32.35]Where the cold against my lips
[00:33.97]
[00:35.27]Hollow like your kiss
[00:36.49]
[00:37.71]Was empty as a North Dakota mile
[00:40.64]
[00:42.89]I tried leaving without losing
[00:44.75]
[00:45.64]But the hardest part was choosing
[00:47.50]
[00:48.22]Which direction I would run when I was free
[00:51.35]
[00:53.84]And the only thing I've learned is
[00:57.08]
[00:57.74]That I haven't learned a thing
[00:59.32]
[01:04.34]I've drank one too many glasses
[01:06.57]I've been bruised and I've been battered
[01:09.48]By mistakes I never bothered to avoid
[01:13.02]
[01:15.36]And friends who tried to offer advice I never followed
[01:19.77]
[01:20.70]Grew tired of watching all that I'd destroyed
[01:23.60]
[01:25.82]So I faked my best foot forward
[01:27.86]
[01:28.59]While sneaking backwards toward
[01:30.42]
[01:31.47]The center where the truth wouldn't sting
[01:34.17]
[01:36.95]And the only thing I've learned is
[01:40.16]
[01:40.71]That I haven't learned a thing
[01:42.70]
[01:47.55]We live we yearn we flame we burn we cry
[01:53.72]
[01:58.76]We crawl we run we reach to touch the sky
[02:04.85]
[02:09.71]And though our wings are made of wax
[02:14.28]
[02:14.80]We try to fly too close to the light
[02:19.98]
[02:21.85]Trying to get it right
[02:23.21]
[02:31.57]You stood there like a stoic
[02:33.77]And I felt so claustrophobic
[02:35.75]
[02:36.69]Wishing you'd give me a reason not to leave
[02:40.13]
[02:42.67]Your silence closed in tighter
[02:44.90]And I felt like an outsider
[02:46.92]In the home that was my haven all those years
[02:51.34]
[02:53.23]But I knew that I was certain
[02:54.81]
[02:55.41]Like the dropping of a curtain
[02:57.56]
[02:58.22]When I saw you'd taken off that ring
[03:01.15]
[03:03.86]Guess the only thing I've learned is
[03:07.17]
[03:07.83]That I haven't learned a thing
[03:09.71]
[03:14.37]We live we yearn we flame we burn we cry
[03:20.31]
[03:25.08]We crawl we run we reach to touch the sky
[03:31.32]
[03:35.66]And though our wings are made of wax
[03:41.30]We try to fly too close to the light
[03:46.63]
[03:48.46]Just to get it right
[03:49.41]
[03:57.92]I have failed and I have fallen
[03:59.36]
[04:00.81]Cried till I was crawling
[04:02.38]
[04:03.28]Been running for so long that I believed
[04:06.12]
[04:08.77]That the thin ice where I landed was steadier
[04:11.77]Than where I'd been
[04:12.98]
[04:13.62]And now I'm not sure what's in front of me
[04:16.33]
[04:18.74]But in the falling and the flying
[04:20.42]
[04:21.19]And the living and the dying
[04:22.94]
[04:23.56]Is how we carve our names inside this dream
[04:27.44]
[04:29.59]The only thing I've learned is
[04:32.68]
[04:40.09]The only thing to learn is that you never learn a thing
