Lesson
[Verse 1: Hendersin]
Thought I knew you as a person
But it worsened
And there’s really no reversin’
Got me searchin’
For a method to the madness
Thought we had this
Turned a night like it was Gladys
Turned to sadness
But the way that I was treated
Is what I needed
Even though I felt defeated
So depleted
Don’t think that I’m excusin’
Your abusin’
But the hurt is what I’m usin’
And I’m choosin’
To be happy
[Chorus 1: ?]
Knife in the back, it’s so deep into my skin
Letting all my emotions pour up from within
And out of my injuries so far
You’re my favorite permanent scar
[Interlude]
[Verse 2: Hendersin]
Pain is weakness leaving the body, so
Let it leave
You a breath of fresh air, so I
Let it breathe
Who knew it would suffocate?
We would get stuck in hate
Unconditional love would somehow fluctuate
Hold on to a grudge, yeah, maybe I could
But you taught me way more, there’s some teachers, I should
Just take it as a lesson, not leave it as a loss
And be grateful that our paths got to cross
Thank you
[Chorus 2: ?]
Rip the threads ’til it withers away
And I’ll scream inside the things I couldn’t say
And out of my injuries so far
You’re my favorite permanent scar
[Interlude: ? and Hendersin]
I hope when you were running away
That you never looked back (Back)
Never looked back (Back)
I have to tell myself every day
That I can’t go back (Back)
Never look back (Nah)
No matter where you are (Yo, yo)
You’ll always be my favorite permanent scar
[Bridge: Hendersin]
You’ll always be my favorite permanent scar
I won’t take this lesson for granted
One day you fly, the next you’ve landed
I hope someday I’ll understand it, ’cause
Life is what happens when you plan it
Life is what happens when you–
[Chorus 3: ?]
Such a beautiful sin, one hard to defend
How the hurt it gave was worth it in the end
But out of my injuries so far
You’re my favorite permanent scar
