Now looking back, I suppose i've always been afraid, of never living life enough. This I lack, but with a style so depraved, you know I really think I'm dumb, losing touch, but touch never meant that much to me, growing up.
Now looking back, I know I've always been the same, never giving life a chance, how sad, to write regrets on idle graves.
Pour away, big lives are never used, to find the honesty, I gotta be drunk just to find the means, but it calms me down.
Now, I feel a freak, she says I left my charm in boxes I can't open any more, lay low, lay low.
I'll borrow friends and I'll borrow dreams, I'll borrow anything just to stay away from being me.
I build grace, just to let it down, hide my heart from my face, I really miss the old me.
Well look at me now, would you say it's a proud one.
Time my heartless friend, you always cool me out..
