Tear out every thought of truth in my mind watch out cause i think i'll know what i'll find the hopes and dreams of years long past if i reach for them could they ever last
when i was younger i could just be when i was younger i could still see straight through the bone into my heart flying straight and true like a steady dart like a steady dart
Is this all i am i once was more
Is it too late to take a chance and make a change
Can I turn back now? my minds a slave to all I was and everything that still remains
all of my plans have gone so wrong my corner stone was not built too strong
this house i made those years ago has come and gone whose left to know
When I was younger I never felt this wrong my father said i had to just be strong and face the cold held deep inside that tears my heart and causes a divide its like a divide
Is this all i am i once was more
Is it too late to take a chance and make a change
Can I turn back now? my minds a slave to all I was and everything that still remains
I remain
This is not all that I am I will be more
It's not too late to take a chance and make a change
I will turn back now I'm not a slave to all I was I'll face all that still remains.
