Learn From My Mistake

from Who I Need To Be by Andrew Niesen

/

lyrics

Screaming at myself
This apathy is misery
Inaction cripples me
Starve for attention
Painful pension for invention
Of self destructive tension
Sitting here alone
Attempting to show what I know
Also how I can grow
Potential wasted
Days not hasted
Now I’ll face it

Learn from my mistake
Get what you can take
Don’t seclude yourself
This solitude is a living hell

How long will it take for me
To become who I need to be
It doesn’t matter, wrong or right
If you never tried

Ignore all the noise
You are enough so remain tough
Sometimes it can seem rough
Bury yourself
Lacking wealth, mental health
Dusty tool on the shelf
When your mind careens
And your teeming mind
Of bad dreams
Not as bad as it seems
I will just beseech
You all to teach
And not to preach

Failure is not the worst or only option

How long will it take?
Learn from my mistake
