My Regrets
I've wasted too much time
To correct someone else's mistakes.
I think I'm lost in this darkness,
Where I was surrounded only by your pictures.
And I was so taken with helping you,
That she had completely forgotten about her life.
I'm so caught up in someone else's struggle,
That I stopped hearing my thoughts.
But today I decided that's enough!
Now learn to fix it yourself.
Stop just lying on the bed!
Remember, don't turn back the clock!
I will easily close my heart to you,
And you will live the life you always wanted.
Stop acting like you're a Duke.
Look around! Your life is like a hotel.
Maybe I was too naive,
Maybe even I was wrong about everything,
But I'm tired of screaming my head off,
It was all your fault.
I'm leaving you for a chance,
So you can find yourself without me.
We will say goodbye to the rhythms of a waltz,
This is the end, the last frame is taken.
