If I learned anything it's that
The T-Rex can't be trusted.
If I learned anything it's how
Crows are cruel
And that the fox connives
If I learned anything
It's that love doesn't come from empty jars
That come in pretty packaging
Because something won't come from nothing
If I have learned anything, it's how
I should move on
And save myself bruises for something else that matters.
But it's hard to forget a snake that's sunk teeth into you
Poisoning the lovely thoughts of yesterday.
If I learned anything, it's that
My self-worth in your presence has been slaughtered.
And that murderers should never be exonerated
But you walked through life like you were a saint.
If I know anything, it's how
The scars you carved will never fade.
