Haunted By the Past
I’ve felt every pain
I’ve been driven insane
My insides haunt me
Nightmares are all I see
I can’t say that I’m stronger
But I found out who I am
I don’t know if I can hold on much longer
But I’m learning to be a man
Was it all my own idiocy
Or was I lost in love’s fallacy
Do I live with my own regret
Or should I forget we ever met
I can’t say that I’m stronger
But I found out who I am
I don’t know if I can hold on much longer
But I’m learning to be a man
Sometimes I can’t get past all the hell I’ve been through
But I know that it’s all gotten me to you
Sometimes I get haunted by my past
But through it all I know your love will always last
I know she’ll always have that part of me
But my future is still ahead of me
I know I’ll always have my past
But my friends and family will always last
So get away from me!
I can’t say that I’m stronger
But I found out who I am
I don’t know if I can hold on much longer
But I’m learning to be a man
