To: Me From: Regret
What I feared I would become
Is exactly what I became
Why didn't I just give in?
It's too late now
I've put everyone to shame
I had one leg in and one leg out
My heart was so filled with doubt
I tried everything I could
To make things work
They did,
But I was miserable
I know nothing's the same
...I understood
From the very beginning
Change is change
You don't notice
Unless you're losing
Leaders lead
They lead with honor and strength
They do as thier told
They watch their tounge
They set the example for their young
I had too much expression
I should of kept quiet
I was a dictator
I created a riot
I payed my respects
But behind the curtain
I said too much
Should of kept my mouth shut
Enough was enough
What exactly did I become?
What was the thing I most feared?
The answer is two faced
Couldn't be any more clear
If I could turn back I would
I'd erase the things I said for good
It's too late now the song is sung
It's too late now what's done is done

I went through a lot of change in my junior year of high school and, because of that change, I had gotten myself into a lot of pesky predicaments, so wrote this piece one late night when my soul was feeling like a shaken up soda bottle.
