lyrics

The dots upon the ceiling make a map of all the things you've never done
She texted you with the fewest words
And what once was two is now only one
I used to be the same
Got tired of playing my own game

You keep getting burned because you never learned
About the reins, and how to let them go

Your legacy's already spent, the space between your ears is all you can afford
He walked out without saying a word
And left you all alone to fall upon your sword
Seems you still don't understand
All the things you can't command

You never learned
About the reins, and how to let them go
