Wasted Time
Hi y'all! I ran across this in the newspaper and wanted to shre. Enjoy, Teggie
Wasted Time
The time that I've wasted is my biggest regret
Spent in those places I'll never forget
Just sitting and thinking about things I have done
The crying, the laughing, the hurt and the fun
Now it's just me and my hard-driven guilt
Behind a wall of emptiness I allowed to be built
I'm trapped in my body, just wanting to run
Back to my youth with it's laughter and fun
The chase is over and there's no place to hide
Everything has been taken, including my pride
With reality suddenley right in my face
I'm scared, alone and stuck in this place
Now memories of the past flash through my head
And the pain is obvious by the tears that I shed
I ask myself why, and where I went wrong
I guess I was weak when I should have been strong
Living for drugs, booze and the wings I have grown
My feelings were lost, afraid to be shown
As I look at my past, it's easy to see
The fear that I had, afraid to be me
I'd pretend to be rugged, so fast and so cool
When actually lost, like a blinded old fool
I'm getting too old for this tiresome game
Of acting real hard with no sense of shame
It's time that I change and get on with my life
Fufilling my dreams for a family and wife
What my future will hold I don't really know
But the years that I've wasted are starting to show
I just live for the day when I'll get a new start
And the dreams I still hold deep in my heart
I hope I can make it, I at least have to try
Because I'm heading towards death and I don't want to die
