1996
I remember being happier than now
Spoiled mama’s boy
I had everything I could need or want
Slow it down
I’m falling fast
Take me back
Take me back
Silly me
Rushing to grow up
Be out on my own
And now I’m ashamed…
Ashamed of who I am
Ashamed of who I want to be
Ashamed because I foolishly
Overlooked the simple things
Oh, please
I promise, now I clearly see
I want to be a better me
And embrace the simple things
I’m lost again, can you
Please help me find the truth
These MTA click clacks can’t drown out my sorrow
I need something louder, I need something stronger
I take it too far, I wish I could say less
Yes, my life is a movie, a low budget horror
Silly me
Rushing to grow up
Be out on my own
But now I’m ashamed…
Ashamed of who I am
Ashamed of who I want to be
Ashamed because I foolishly
Overlooked the simple things
Oh, please
I promise, now I clearly see
I want to be a better me
And embrace the simple things
