I learned it wrong
But I made my own trail
Found heaven accidentally while I was
backing away from hell
People try to give advice
But before they finish I’m long gone
I’ll get there on my own road
It’s my way even if I learned it wrong
Throw away the compass
Throw away the map
Play the cards your given
Not the ones you’re supposed to have
I heard the words they said
But they have their own lives to live
I hear them yelling as I walk away
They tell me
I learned it wrong
But I made my own trail
Found heaven accidentally while I was
backing away from hell
People try to give advice
But before they finish I’m long gone
I’ll get there on my own road
It’s my way even if I learned it wrong
When I was born I came out the wrong way
I didn’t listen to a thing they’d say
Didn’t follow in the footsteps
Of the ones who came before
Didn’t care about a beaten path
Many a time Ive bombed and crashed
I crossed a river and without learning how to swim
I learned it wrong
But I made my own trail
Found heaven accidentally while I was
backing away from hell
People try to give advice
But before they finish I’m long gone
I’ll get there on my own road
It’s my way even if I learned it wrong
Many is the mile
Winding is the way
If you tell me not to listen
I might hear the words you say
But in the end I want to know
All dead ends and the endless roads
Everywhere is where I want to go
You can tell me
I learned it wrong
But I made my own trail
Found heaven accidentally while I was
backing away from hell
People try to give advice
But before they finish I’m long gone
I’ll get there on my own road
