Lesson Learnt

Safe to say this is a messed up situation
And I wish I'd never met you some days
So picture-perfect, but the picture's slowly turning
All I see is her when I look at your face
Don't miss the nights when we were up until gone five
We had the neighbours out there banging on the doors
This one's on you, I don't get why I had to leave
So you could find out I was what you want for sure
Sad to say, that if I stayed you'd never change

So, I'll be the example that you tell to your son
When he messes up and says, "She is the one"
You'll give the example of the things that you've done
How you let me leave knowing I was the one
I'm the lesson learnt

I heard you say it was the best time of your life
You'd do it right if you could do it all again
I know you say that you're aware of how bad you hurt me
Well, I wish you did, though I don't think you do
But I won't lie it makes me mad when I would cry
You turned your back, so now I'm me but filled with cracks
And even after all of that
Sad to say you've never changed

So, I'll be the example that you tell to your son
When he messes up and says, "She is the one"
You'll give the example of the things that you've done
How you let me leave knowing I was the one
I'm the lesson learnt (learnt, learnt)
I'm the lesson learnt (learnt, learnt)

I'll be the example that you tell to your son
