Well, when I was young I was so full of fear I hid behind anger, held back the tears It was me against the world, I was sure that I'd win But the world fought back, punished me for my sins Well I felt so alone, so insecure I blamed you instead made sure I was heard And they tried to warn me of my evil ways But I couldn't hear what they had to say
I was wrong Self destruction's got me again I was wrong I realize now that I was wrong
And I think about my loves, well I've had a few. Well I'm sorry that I hurt them, Did I hurt you too? I took what I wanted Put my heart on the shelf But how can you love when you don't love yourself? It was me against the world I was sure that I'd win The world fought back, punished me for my sins And they tried to warn me Of my evil ways But I couldn't hear what they had to say
I was wrong Self destruction's got me again I was wrong I realize now that I was wrong I was wrong, yeah I was wrong
I grew up fast And I grew up hard Something was wrong from the very start I was fighting everybody I was fighting everything But the only one that I hurt was me I got society's blood running down my face Somebody help me get outta this place How could someone's bad luck last so long? Until I realized that I was wrong.
I was wrong Self destruction's got me again I was wrong I realize now that I was wrong I was wrong Self destruction's got me again I was wrong The only one that I hurt was me I was wrong
