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 The world fought back, punished me for my sins I felt so alone, so insecure, I blamed you instead and 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 realized now that I was wrong And I think about my loves, well I've had a few I'm sorry that I hurt them, did I hurt you too I took what I wanted, put my heart on the shelf How can ya love me when you don't love yourself

I grew up fast, 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
