Chris Shiflett - The Hardest Lessons Lyrics

Well I've always been a malcontent
Never real good at taking compliments
With one foot in my mouth I apologize
And I'll never forget my last drink
Elevator going up but I was sinking
From the 25th floor all I wanted to do was fly
Well I've never been happier than walking away I'll get to where I'm going someday
And If I don't at least I'll keep you guessing
Ya I've never been better than being alone Every mistake I make is my own
Cuz some people only learn the hardest lessons
Y'know I got 3 boys and a minivan Some days I forget who I am
And when I'm lost I lead myself astray 25 years out on the road
Lost a few good friends and some I didn't know And here I am dancing on their graves
Well think about baby what you really want Has it ever been good enough?
And pardon me all my indiscretions
But when you add it all up now in the end
I hope you'll take me back again
Cuz some people only learn the hardest lessons
