Who I Was

Just when life is at its best You will soon come to regret And realize That you’ll never be Worth loving Deep down, you wonder why you fall You wonder why, back then, you never saw it all And now it’s all coming back Who you used to be, Who you wanna be Who I am, and who I was You were so strange and silly back then Comical was merely the lift of a pen You laughed and smiled at everything Nothing seemed to be damaging Save your own small faults In broken vaults You sat there triumphantly Singing a song you wrote And now I sit here, regretfully Wondering why I can’t comply With anything
