I stand alone on the verge of twenty four   I come undone, I'm left at shore   Everyone I know has a casket made   To plot things down, their roads are paved      Do I still have time to make mistakes?   Is this the point, will I bend or break   Am I too far gone to medicate   Is this a birth or is this a wake?      There was a part of me,   That I lost when i was seventeen   I can't get back   The innocence I gave to scenes   In between Jersey plays   Was just an act      I would slit my throat and blind me through my life   Desperate I emerge with two black eyes   At the mouth of a river people shit,   With concrete shoes, ready to jump in      Do I still have time to chase my dreams?   Or did that pass, sail out and leave?   Is there still room for me to grow?   Or is this few all that I know?      There was a part of me,   That I lost when I was seventeen   I cant get back   The innocence I gave to scenes   In between Jersey plays   Was just an act      Sometimes I want, to just give in   Accept the answers without a question   Its easier, I must confess   To treat this life like its a waiting room for death      How can I make sense of this mess?   I'll share my emptiness, with a glass   It's my best bet for happiness      There was a part of me,   That I lost when I was seventeen   I cant get back   The innocence I gave to scenes   In between Jersey plays   Was just an act      There was a part of me,   That I lost when I was seventeen   I cant get back   The innocence I gave to scenes   In between Jersey plays   Was just an act
