I Was Wrong

When I was young, I was so full of fear

I hid behind anger and held back the tears

It was me against the world, I was sure that I'd win

But the world fought back, punished me for my sins

Well, I felt so alone, so insecure

But I blamed you instead, made sure I was heard

They tried to warn me of my evil ways

But I couldn't hear what they had to say

I was wrong

Self-destruction's got me again

I was wrong

I realize now that I was wrong

And I think about my loves, well, I've had a few

I'm sorry that I hurt them, did I hurt you too?

Well, I took what I wanted, put my heart on the shelf

But how can you love when you don't love yourself?

It was me against the world, I was sure that I'd win

But the world fought back, punished me for my sins

They tried to warn me of my evil ways

But I couldn't hear what they had to say

I was wrong

Self-destruction's got me again

I was wrong

I realize now that I was wrong

I was wrong, yeah

I was wrong

Well, I grew up fast, well I grew up hard

Something was wrong from the very start

I was fighting everybody, I was fighting everything

But the only one that I hurt was me

I got society's blood running down my face (Ah, ah)

Somebody help me get out of this place (Ah, ah)

How could someone's bad luck last so long? (Ah, ah)

Until I realized that I was wrong (Ah, ah)

I was wrong

Self-destruction's got me again

I was wrong

I realize now that I was wrong

I was wrong

Self-destruction's got me again

I was wrong

The only one that I hurt was me

I was wrong
