Me
I always do everything that’s different from the rest
Never finish what I start, how can I be the best
I live my life from day to day, wonder in my mind
What could have I become… if I really tried
Memories is all I have, with all my hopes and dreams
In a land of make believe, Nothings what it seems

I guess a man is measured by what he has to hold
I who have nothing…Like a broken mold
I used to have some promise but squandered every chance
All the years of wasting…are nothing but a glance
In my life I found it hard to settle for the best
What I thought was better…was always something less

Mistakes, regrets, indecisive and with doubt
I thought that I fit in…I was merely just left out
It’s easy to divert the blame on reasons why you fail
It’s harder to accept the blame with failure on this scale
Regain your edge; make a stand, no sorrow without fault
Make your dreams accomplishments, or let it go for naught

Can you do it all alone and do you have the will?
All the negativity has promise of it still
Now it’s time to start a new, you never lost your way
To believe in those who want to help, fall victim to the prey
So keep your focus straight ahead and leave the past behind
What’s mine is yours is not the truth…what’s yours is never mine
