We are bound, we are broken Torn by the lessons never learned But all I've read and all that's been spoken Have led me where I've turned Where I've turned, where I'm turning I have learned that I'm still learning I'm giving up my pride for higher ground I'm giving up where I've been for where I'm bound We all started as a child We thought and reasoned like a child A place to grow, but not to stay We had everything to learn But over time, we didn't turn We got stuck in our childish ways So I'm giving up what I know To find what's worth knowing We are bound, we are broken Torn by the lessons never learned But all I've read and all that's been spoken Have led me where I've turned Where I've turned, where I'm turning I have learned that I'm still learning I'm giving up my pride for higher ground I'm giving up where I've been for where I'm bound We have failed so many times Trying to heal our broken lives We have wounded hearts and tired minds I have never been smart enough And I've never been strong enough But I'm leaving all of that behind And I'm learning from where I've been To change where I'm going We are bound, we are broken Torn by the lessons never learned But all I've read and all that's been spoken Have led me where I've turned Where I've turned, where I'm turning I have learned that I'm still learning I'm giving up my pride for higher ground I'm giving up where I've been for where I'm bound I am turning around I am turning around We are bound, we are broken Torn by the lessons never learned But all I've read and all that's been spoken Have led me where I've turned Where I've turned, where I'm turning I have learned that I'm still learning I'm giving up my pride for higher ground I'm giving up where I've been for where I'm bound I'm giving up where I've been for where I'm bound I'm giving up where I've been for where I'm bound
