My fondest thoughts of you, turned out an empty dream What was once left for dead, is yet remaining to be seen This world's a cold place, sometimes it seems so cruel Unless you learn the hard way, not one taught to me in school I'm so tired of thinking of it, and I gain the wisdom to know what I need And I've lost to much time thinking of that girl Not let my anger tear me up the way I do Still my frustrations become to much for me to take It's a pressing problem not one easy for me to shake I knew something had to break, I knew something had to change No one had to tell me, I could feel it in my heart I'm so tired of thinking of it, and I gain the wisdom to know what I need And I've lost to much time thinking of that girl Not let my anger tear me up the way I do, the way I do I wake with head on in the morning But seem to lose it somewhere along the way And it don't feel right Head ons gonna keep me from the deep end, and I will tighten up loose screws And make it feel right I'm so tired of thinking of it, and I gain the wisdom to know what I need And I've lost to much time thinking of that girl Not let my anger tear me up the way I do, the way I do The way we always do
