For the Now

Ever since I was a little kid
I had abundant problems fitting in
I was never certain where to go
Always borderlining giving in
Every instrument given to me to scale
every incrament was a new nail
In my coffin, every have a go was another hammer blow
Every other day was another pain
Every moment gone was another waste
every friend I made was a passing phase
every dream I had gone when I awake
Every foot that fell was a get away
so I lay at night with the light on
Thinking where has all of my time gone
I would never get it back
So I held it tight
Always worried why it didn't go right
I was used to be worthless every day of my life
Death would only be me paying my price

So, when I grew old
I would wanna make a change
Do it all again,
just to do it right
Take away the pain
If I had the time, to go
back and watch myself grow
I would tell myself be strong
No one's here for too long
If you ever wake up empty
Feeling life was too lengthy
When you're looking back, on all of it
And imagine if you ever called it quits
don't
stay strong
Stay strong
I'm better than this, you're better than this

We have limited time breathing
why spend any of it grieving
there's a limit to your time living
why spend any second of it feeling, cold

No regrets, every step is a good one
every moment a chance you can learn from
every Friend is someone you can lean on
but be strong
cause you came in this life, alone
and we're gonna go, out of it, the same way
Don't spend all your days regretting mistakes
Find the pleasure in the little things you live for
Before, you cried your whole life away
