To My Dismay - Former Self Lyrics

Take another chance
A dose of reality
Memories of the past
Without complexity
As we try to change
Urgency starts to build
Our fears will erase
Everything we could have been

Strength is in truths
And figments from our pasts
Our struggles the same
And these feelings will always last

How many times have we said
That we're nothing like before
Shaped by our own choices
Terrified once more
We play through all these games
As we live through our own hell
We can rise again
If we free ourselves

Now that we have made
Our choice to take a stand
United we will be
As we fight hand in hand
And now we must move on
From memories of the past
To make a better future
To make a life that will last

Pick up the pieces
Of our former selves
We are not going to end this way
Pick up the pieces
Of our former self
We are not going to end this way
