Mmmmm
Life's lessons
Mmmmm
Life's lessons

When I've stopped breaking my wings,
Against the flaws in all these things,
And learned that compromise awaits,
Behind each barely opened gate.

When I've stared Life in the eyes,
Grown calm and coldly wise,
Life will hand me the Truth,
In exchange for my youth.

Oh, the lessons that we learn,
As the world begins to turn,
Trading dreams for what is real,
Losing fire, gaining steel.
Life will hand me the Truth,
In exchange for my youth.

When I've faced all my fears,
Dried the last of my tears,
And learned that every victory,
Comes with its own history.

When I've stared Life in the eyes,
Grown calm and coldly wise,
Life will hand me the Truth,
In exchange for my youth.

Oh, the lessons that we learn,
As the world begins to turn,
Trading dreams for what is real,
Losing fire, gaining steel.
Life will hand me the Truth,
In exchange for my youth.

No more chasing after shadows,
No more battles in the night,
Finding peace in every sorrow,
As the darkness turns to light.

Oh, the lessons that we learn,
As the world begins to turn,
Trading dreams for what is real,
Losing fire, gaining steel.
Life will hand me the Truth,
In exchange for my youth.

When I've stopped breaking my wings,
And embraced the truths life brings,
I'll hold the wisdom close,
And bid my youth adieu,
For the truth we gain,
Is the price we pay,
When life takes our youth away
