I stand alone on the verge of twenty four
I come undone, I'm left at shore
Everyone I know has a casket made
To plot things down, their roads are paved
Do I still have time to make mistakes?
Is this the point, will I bend or break
Am I too far gone to medicate
Is this a birth or is this a wake?
There was a part of me,
That I lost when i was seventeen
I can't get back
The innocence I gave to scenes
In between Jersey plays
Was just an act
I would slit my throat and blind me through my life
Desperate I emerge with two black eyes
At the mouth of a river people shit,
With concrete shoes, ready to jump in
Do I still have time to chase my dreams?
Or did that pass, sail out and leave?
Is there still room for me to grow?
Or is this few all that I know?
There was a part of me,
That I lost when I was seventeen
I cant get back
The innocence I gave to scenes
In between Jersey plays
Was just an act
Sometimes I want, to just give in
Accept the answers without a question
Its easier, I must confess
To treat this life like its a waiting room for death
How can I make sense of this mess?
I'll share my emptiness, with a glass
It's my best bet for happiness
There was a part of me,
That I lost when I was seventeen
I cant get back
The innocence I gave to scenes
In between Jersey plays
Was just an act
There was a part of me,
That I lost when I was seventeen
I cant get back
The innocence I gave to scenes
In between Jersey plays
Was just an act
