Everything We've Learned so Far

I’ve got a rough, angry letter
That I wrote for God
But when I learned She wouldn’t read it
I resorted to song

When I said that I could sing
You asked if I was insane
You said the cutthroat business
Is always the same

Here I thought
20 years is a plenty, long while
To get your shit together
And stop acting like a child

But I can see that it’s longer than that
Matter of fact
It’s how you act
When you’re given the chance

Cause it’s only everything
We’ve learned so far
I’ve got more in the chamber
I’m not the one who’s in danger

Cause it’s only everything
We’ve feared so far
There’s an endless remainder
If I’m the wall, you’re the painter

Do you ever look back
Wonder what you could do
A new plan of attack
A different point of view

It’s too late
There’s a path sitting in front of you
You can’t get too attached
Learn to enjoy the few

But I can see that it’s harder than that
Matter of fact
It’s harder yet
When you’re given the chance.

Cause it’s only everything
We’ve learned so far
I’ve got more in the chamber
I’m not the one who’s in danger

Cause it’s only everything
We’ve feared so far
There’s an endless remainder
If I’m the wall, you’re the painter

Cause it’s only everything
We’ve learned so far
I’ve got more in the chamber
I’m not the one who’s in danger

Cause it’s only everything
We’ve feared so far
There’s an endless remainder
If I’m the wall, you’re the painter
