Daughtry - Learn My Lesson

Tonight the sunset means so much
The one thing that you know you'll never touch
Like the feeling, the real thing
I reach out for that sweet dream
But somehow the darkness wakes me up
I've felt this emptiness before
But all the times that I've been broken
I still run right back for more

[Chorus]
You'd think that I'd learn my lesson by now
You'd think that I'd somehow figure out
That if you strike the match
You're bound to feel the flame
You'd think that I'd learn the cost of love
Paid that price long enough
But still I drive myself right through the pain
Yeah, well it turns out, I haven't learned a thing

Sometimes I think I'm better off
To turn out the lights and close up shop
And give up the longing, believing in belonging
Just hold down my head and take the loss

[Chorus]

The first song that caught my attention the first time I listened to the album and the song I've been putting on repeat the whole day today. I don't know, it just sounds really nice ♥. I love the lyrics too, especially the chorus.

You know, honestly, the first time I listened to Daughtry's new album, Leave This Town, I was kinda disappointed. Compared to the songs from previous album, almost all of which I instantly liked the moment I heard them, the new songs didn't stick in my head as easily and I didn't really feel anything special about them, save from one or two. However, after listening to the album continuously over the last 2 days, I have grown to like all the songs. I think I'm going to be posting a few more songs from the album sooner or later, haha. Just listen to the album x).
