I look away for a second and a year's gone by
And I realize how long I've been alive
Back in the day, as a kid, I couldn't fathom how I'd
Live a life before I killed the lights
But now I'm here
You'd think that I'd be over it by now but my
Problems keep mutating
It's getting frustrating
Reaching my goals was a mere mirage and
Now I'm stuck here self-sabotaging
Even though I'm where I thought I wouldn't be
You're so young, you're so grand
I'm not old, but I'm bland
If I could, I'd get a second chance and go back in time
I'd finally make a change
Take away all my pain
And that way, I could at least be half as good as you today
It doesn't make any sense to be irrational with how I see
The gap between you & me
'Cause some are born with a gift to be a natural but that doesn't mean
That we won't get there eventually
Where would I be without these thoughts inside me?
Wings spread in the limelight
Flying toward some new heights but
Feels too heavy, but they're too light to kill me
Even so, I'm where I thought I wouldn't be
You're so young, you're so grand
I'm not old, but I'm bland
If I could, I'd get a second chance and go back in time
I'd finally make a change
Take away all my pain
And that way, I could at least be half as good as you today
