Lesson Learned

I don't know what you want
But I suppose it doesn't matter
You're the past
and i wanna leave you there
You never thought twice back then
And the future won't make you care

I'm not going to that place with you again
I already took your hand to the bitter end
And I came out with nothin'
I went to the deepest darkest depths of my soul
To a place I never thought I'd know
And I lost me for you: pointless journey
But I was naive and willing to be your fool

But now I've grown with my own light holding in the palm of my hands
And now I get it
Now I see it
Now I'm ready to breathe it, take it, be it
Be consumed by it in every form
Cause I can see what's ahead of me
And it don't include you
You were a lesson well learned, a bridge that i willingly burned
I took five minutes to watch and reflect
And then I turned
Turned to where I'm supposed to be.
