[Verse 1]
You never really knew
The things you learned would matter
The things you did and didn’t do would someday define you
The things you hate the most
The lessons on piano
The books you read in Sunday school
I swear I’d trade in anything to be young again

[Pre-Chorus]
And all these things
Were lessons in living

[Chorus]
It seems like we’re all fighting to be more than who we are
Life’s been a test of virtue and humility so far
‘Cause give and take don’t matter either way
Luck of the draw, the lottery
Roshambo for poverty
Destination: anywhere but here

[Verse 2]
Here I go again
Feeling sorry for myself
Am I getting old at heart
Too old to pretend
That everything’s alright?
Have I had a choice?
Walking past a threshold
Into a change
And your life’s never the same again
[Pre-Chorus]
And all these things
Were lessons in living

[Chorus]
It seems like were all fighting to be more than who we are
Life’s been a test of virtue and humility so far
'Cause give and take don’t matter either way
Luck of the draw, the lottery
Roshambo for poverty
Destination: anywhere but here

[Bridge]
My mind’s open
I scream for better things

[Chorus]
It seems like were all fighting to be more than who we are
Life’s been a test of virtue and humility so far
'Cause give and take don’t matter either way
Luck of the draw, the lottery
Roshambo for poverty
Destination: anywhere but here
