The art of moving on

I want to learn something new
After all this time, it would be fitting
After all that I've been through
Something good would be more in tune

It's not her, and it's not you
I think it's time for someone new
It's not her, and it's not you
I think it's time for someone new

I'll turn pages at my own pace
and I'll panic at the sight of your face
Is it therapy or a new song
that will teach me the art of moving on?

I thought I'd grown, but I'm the same
A childish idiot calling names
Going too hard on himself
Too stubborn to talk and ask for help

"Don't go away", "leave me alone"
You can blame me, I'm on my own
"Don't go away", "leave me alone"
You can blame me, I'm on my own

"I want to be stronger, I want it now
I want you by my side when it all comes down"
The drugs I take can't make you leave
"Never again come close to me"
I want all but I get none
And still I wonder why I'm alone

Maybe by the time I'm singing this song
I'll have mastered the art of moving on
