I look back at many times, and still I cannot explain why 

Those memories thought vain, they become useful here and then 

My conscious won't let go, that pain inside me has a home 

Those haunting thoughts are stepping stones 



And now, that time I spent with you, which all had to be reviewed 

The lessons that were stored, I use them all to help ignore 

I pile up the bad in order to replace the good we had 

Those haunting thoughts are stepping stones 



I put my jealousies aside, some part of me said I was right 

So I took a new approach and rid myself of foolish pride 

My timing it was bad, at least some day I know we'll look and laugh 

Those stepping stones built my new path 



But hey, hey please don't take offence, it's just I feel alive again 

Just a mistake along your way; for me a strange reality 

I got tired of taking blame, bored of my animosity 

I'm glad this makes me sick, I like my brand new start 

Aversion it's my fresh new trick 

It's armor added to my heart
