Regret

(Jay Egan)

We all have regrets, times in our lives when we picked the wrong sliding door, many inconsequential but some life defining. Regardless, at times, we think about what might have been knowing very well that there is nothing we can do about it now.

I truly think, through all these years 
To sum me up is to see through tears 
The old regrets of moments past 
Oh how the years have gone too fast 
I used to think, when i was young 
and tarnished with the devils tongue 
that all my life i would succeed 
how wrong i was as i lay and bleed 
 
My moments past and my time is at an end 
my friend, was once, my only memory 
to keep me sane and push me through life 
if only i'd kept the path made for me 
 
Regretting just about everything i'd done 
reminding myself of a life with no fun 
my decisions let me down time again 
pushing me deeper into the lions den 
How could i hold my head up high 
When i'm dying inside while outside i cry 
Too elusive my pride as i run and hide 
from the pain that i know will never subside 
 
Take me back to a better time and place 
Back when i ruled all time and space 
And any rude comment i'd brush off of my back 
And you'd never be ready for my comeback 
 
What happened to me why didn't i see  
the changes that happened to my physicality 
I never saw the signs, i never knew the times 
When my confidence left me, no rhymes
