Say, who did you want to be?
And what went wrong to make you turn out like you did?
Tell me, who were you born to be?
And when did innocence leave you for dead?

Don't be scared and don't feel lonely
don't feel ashamed, your not the only one like that...
Whose dreams became those compromises,
and jealousy became disguises of the truth
As if its all on you.

Don't give up just yet;
you're not the only one who feels like you've been out-gunned
Don't think of regret;
society's met with the battles of our youth.

Just take all of the pain you hide;
it equals the courage you need to look it in the eye
And don't ever criticize yourself
for finding what you needed at the time
