When I was young, still a kid |
|
I was unprepared, never thought before I did |
|
And now as I look back I can't believe it |
|
I told lies, needed proof, I was further from the truth |
|
So I locked myself in the corner of my room |
|
Yeah I thought maybe my view could be better |
|
I never knew what I did, it would all come back |
|
I'd be forced to sift through all the misdirection |
|
I believed in |
|
I relied on my youth, I could make up an excuse |
|
And collected scars, yeah |
|
I thought that I could choose |
|
And my way would be destined to deliver |
|
You never have as long as you want |
|
So don't get caught up in the |
|
We never could take back time that we're wasting |
|
I only hope that you've been listening |
|
But I doubt you could repeat a thing |
|
Yeah I've been in that seat before |
|
It's always easy to ignore |
|
When no one wants or needs advice |
|
From someone they don't think is right |
|
And just 'cause I've been wrong before |
|
It doesn't mean I don't want more for |
|
You live in the long-term world |
|
And it's hard to endure |
|
(But ya) |
|
Do 'cause you've already seen and |
|
You know the routine now |
|
(We) |
|
Maybe could meet in the middle |
|
It's not too difficult |
|
(To) |
|
'Cause we're both just stuck with spinning wheels |
|
The odds aren't any easier on either side |
|
And just because you say it doesn't make it right |
|
Don't think I ever could repay you but it's still my life |
|
I hope I never have to say or go forever a day without you |
|
(You) |
|
Live in the long-term world |
|
And it's hard to endure |
|
(But ya) |
|
(Do) |
|
'Cause you've already seen and |
|
You know the routine now |
|
(We) |
|
Maybe could meet in the middle |
|
It's not too difficult |
|
(To) |
|
'Cause we can't take back this wasted time but |
|
(You) |
|
Never have as long as you want so don't get caught up |
|
(But ya) |
|
(Do) |
|
Yeah, you've already seen and it's not any easier but |
|
(We) |
|
Maybe could meet in the middle |
|
It's not too difficult |
|
(To) |
|
'Cause we can't take back this wasted time |
