start from scratch

If I could start my life from scratch
I wouldn't take the pain or blood out my hands
If I could go back I wouldn't fuck up with the past
I'd take everything I got before

If I could go back, I'd watch it like a ghost and touch nothing
Rewind it real slow, take time in watching the past go
Watch me come and see them all go
No lie I've no resentment
I'd watch them roll out as it happens
Like it's still the present
Can't change it, won't change just deal with the pain

If I could start my life from scratch
I wouldn't take the pain or blood out my hands
If I could go back I wouldn't fuck up with the past
I'd take everything I got before

I'd watch my mother go thru that pain
Cause those moments made me brave
And at the end the world stopped and her pain drop, gone
She gone up to god, she has no pain no more
Watch every moment like every note is going into my pocket
Cause that's my forces when I'm at my lowest moment
She's what made me know I'm never hopeless

If I could start my life from scratch
I wouldn't take the pain or blood out my hands
If I could go back I wouldn't fuck up with the past
I'd take everything I got before

Take every memory back with me
Like I'm studying history
Watch me walking in the past
But can't be seen like I'm a mystery
Or a ghost
Walking on the old roads, bare feet on old stones
I'd go back for hope, back when everything dropped like a rock or stone, rain and watch all the mistakes, all the pain
The old days when I was trying to escape,complain, everyday was the same
And still I wouldn't change a day hour second or moment.
