"My Lesson" lyrics

Met you in the dark, thought you were my light
A late night, and long talk, I thought God had a light yea
I give you my trust, you gave me the test
My hearts on the table with a knife in my chest
I had ignored all the signs, and chose to play you blind
A red flag seems so kind when your wasting time
I broke all the rules just to keep you close
I lost myself loving you the most

You were my lesson
That I had to learn that you were a test for me
Was in good intentions
But that wasn't the way it turned out to be
It's such a shame cause I got so much love to give
But you took advantage of the gift
I hate to say that your my lesson

You were never mine, always over pressed
But every scare you left it came with a blessing
I love the idea of you, it wasn't the truth
You love the attention, but never the proof
And all the things I can do for you to stop
Was pouring my love into cups when faith wasn't enough
I broke all the rules just to keep you close
I lost myself loving you the most

You were my lesson
That I had to learn that you were a test for me
Was in good intentions
But that wasn't the way it turned out to be
It's such a shame cause I got so much love to give
But you took advantage of the gift
I hate to say that your my lesson

There's no hate in my heart, don't you worry
You played your role in my story
I forgave you not for what you couldn't be
But for myself that's the least that I can do for me

You were my lesson
That I had to learn that you were a test for me
Was in good intentions
But that wasn't the way it turned out to be
It's such a shame cause I got so much love to give
But you took advantage of the gift
I hate to say that your my lesson
