If I could go back and relive my days Sometimes I wonder what the hell would I change If I studied more in school what would I become? A scientist, an astronaut walking on the sun? What if I could change all that I've done? Tell my old self the truth when she's young So today I wouldn't be so hurt To be growing like a seed from others dirt But time traveling doesn't exist in my world So I'm stuck with my past and my old shattered pearls I cry haunted tears that won't leave me alone I scratch away the pain 'til all I have is bone I've been hurt so much that I call that my home And I'm so used to smiling that its turned to stone I pretend everything is fine though I've lost myself Like a drafted design I'm going to need a some help To finish my story with a happy little ending But so far I'm still stuck in the damn beginning I'm trying to learn from my mistakes Though it's hard to grow being held back by old hate Sometimes I wish I could go to sleep And wake up to find all that was a dream I'm living in a nightmare all day constantly Trying to fight off the demons that's grabbing at me So I pull out a paper and pen Jotting down all my emotional sin To cleanse my mind of all this confusion For my heart to stop aching like it's running out of beats To overcome my anger and make the tears retreat To strengthen my spine as I take a seat To relax my body as I can finally breathe
