What are we doing? Why haven't we learnt?

Grass grows at our feet,
Love grows with every heart beat,
As quick as things grow they fall,
It'll happen and loose it all.
What are we doing?
Why haven't we learnt?

Climbing that wall was tough,
I have had just enough.
Climbing, climbing, when can I stop?
All I can give is all I've got...
What are we doing?
Why haven't we learnt?

When I reach the top I will smile,
Faith says this will be worthwhile,
Yet I cannot say I know for sure,
Please be my hearts cure...
What are we doing?
Why haven't we learnt?

I refuse to give in to these fears,
Nothing will stop me, even these tears,
They fall just like my heart did,
You can't say that you forbid.
What are we doing?
Why haven't we learnt?

When you promised to always stay,
You only really meant for one day,
As you walked away everything shattered,
Nothing I said really mattered...
What are we doing?
Why haven't we learnt?

Waiting here for you to appear,
And you've made it quite clear,
That I shall have to wait awhile,
But the thought of 'us' makes me smile...
What are we doing?
Why haven't we learnt?

Hope is all I have for this,
Wishful thinking for some bliss,
This emotion will be the death of me,
Both of us will have to wait and see...
What am I doing?
Why haven't I learnt?
