Where am I going? How should I do it? There's no way of knowing But I know where I've been, I know what I've done Know how I handled it then, realize now it was dumb (So dumb) What am I doing? Where am I going? How should I do it? There's no way of knowing But I know where I've been, I know what I've done Despite what I did as a kid I like the man I've become
