The Only Lesson Learned
Scott Miller
Greyhounds to home
Roads to Rome that trail from all advances
Fey retail towns
Legal grounds to block my second chances
The stone age gone, still and drawn
Ties once so long-ranging
All one by one
Come undone and leave me scared of changing
And it's not my fault I don't want to hear a thing they say
The only lesson learned is appearing okay
And I don't know who runs the show
Get me through a message
All you kids in your teens
May not mean to but you all impress me
I never try to sympathize, it's always such a strain
The only lesson learned is avoidance of pain
