Learning Curve

by Strange Chan

/

lyrics

She came
Out of nowhere
I was ashamed
Of my body
but she didn’t care

My brain
Is a motherfucker
When it compels me
Am I insane?
I’d like to think
That was the old me

Jasmine please
Forgive the way
I pushed you away
My tender ego
Gets in the way
of everything

(Refrain)
I’m glad you made me wait
I’m glad you knew I was a mistake
If you gave me what I wanted
I never would have learned anything
Like so many boys

Time
Is the ruler
Born on the divide
I wonder what happened to her
A tidal wave of saline dreams
Left in my wake
I could never give you
More than I could take

(Refrain)
I’m glad you made me wait
I’m glad you knew I was a mistake
If you gave me what I wanted
I know you would regret
What you gave
Like so many girls

(Bridge)
Now I brandish
This chip on my shoulder
And my big mouth
Does me no favors
Can you show me
To the nearest wormhole
To a dimension
Where I’m not such an asshole?

To where the damaged good
Can love themselves enough
To let a little love in
To where the wide eyed angels
All have wings
To soar above the bullshit
To where there are no kings and queens
And we all walk the Earth as equals
But happy endings are for fairytales

(Refrain)
I’m glad you made me wait
I’m glad you knew I was a mistake
If you gave me what I wanted
I never would have learned anything
Have I learned anything?
