Everything I Know
by MARK209

Album: Thumbprint

(vrs 1)
I’ve learned more from my mistakes than I ever did from doing something right.
Every wrong turn I’d take, showed me one more way to fly but sometimes fight.
‘n’ all that fightin’ and the flyin’ showed me who to trust and who to just let go.
Every stupid thing I’ve done so far has taught me nearly everything I know.

(vrs 2)
Till your back’s against the wall, you will never know how powerful you are.
Till you’re down to your last call and you’re wishing on that lonely, lucky star.
On the path of least resistance you are gonna miss some gorgeous bumpy roads.
Every stupid thing I’ve done so far has taught me nearly everything I know.

Chorus
But the truth is sometimes better left unspoken.
Love will always see right through a lie.
A heart grows back much better where it’s broken.
What don’t kill ya makes you stronger less ya die.

(vrs 3)
You could fill a million books with the stuff that I know now but didn’t then.
And with all the times I failed and then turned right ‘round and did the same again.
But the good Lord stood beside me, never once did He forget He loves me so.
He’s used every stupid thing so far to teach me nearly everything I know.

Chorus
To always leave the door of my heart open.
In spite of what I know might go inside.
When there is no way out, to just keep hoping.
And to keep on never knowing till I’ve tried.
