I wish i could go back to 2004

I would work harder, and push myself more

Maybe things would've been different, maybe i could've made my family proud

Maybe i would've been happier, instead of walking around, like over my head there's always a dark cloud

I sit up late at night and wonder, is it too late for me?

I close my eyes and imagine so many amazing things, but those things, i never turned out to be

I'm intimidated by everyone's success, i'm afraid of rejection, and my emotions aren't easily controlled

If only life granted a teacher, someone to take me aside, and bring me into the fold

Sometimes i question, what brought this life to be?

Why am i so broken? What is it i need to learn and who is it that can teach me?

The world, is so big, yet i feel so small

I break at sight, and I crumble as i fall

I wish i could go back in time, and change my life

Then i could bring myself to look in the mirror with pride, and not shame, as i look at my scar, and remember that dull knife

I wish it was easy, and i didn't have so many obstacles, so many challenges to hurtle.

I feel like the shell without the turtle

I just wish my life was pre set

Maybe then i wouldn't be filled with so much damn regret
