I used to run
I used to know just what I would become
I used to have a plan
And no one could ever make me change my mind
Or see beyond my pride
I was so caught up in my dreams
And luck was not a luxury I could count on as I waited
I am apart from my mistakes
And I am far away from the choices that I've made
And it's easy to say that every man controls his fate
But it's harder to regain the time he's lost
When he's ashamed of the cost
I used to think that everyone was wrong
And no one else could see what I could see
And I was lost
I was fighting back the hands that had reached out for me
And now I see they were imaginary
And I was just a fool who thought I had defeated my enemies
I am apart from my mistakes
And I am far away from the choices that I've made
And it's easy to say that every man controls his fate
But it's harder to regain the time he's lost
When he's ashamed of the cost
I am apart from my mistakes
And I am far away from the choices that I've made
And it's easy to say that every man controls his fate
But it's harder to regain the time he's lost
