In pieces

No matter how much i say that i have learned life's lessons
the only way to know life's lessons, is when it smacks you right in the face
rubberband stretched to the limit, but still i cannot help but pull it just a little bit more
once again my whole world crumbles walls cave in and i fall backwards
everything i know taken out at the knee
hands stuffed deep into my mouth to keep from choking on the words
that shows how much i know about nothing at all
i know that that these days will have an end, just like i know that i'll be back again
this place is awful but it's familiar
