Shooting off vicious collections of words The losers make facts by the things they have heard And I find myself trying hard to defend them I made decisions some right and some wrong And I let some love go I wish wasn't gone These things and more I wish I had not done But I can't go back And I don't want to 'Cause all my mistakes They brought me to you I have some "friends" they don't know who I am So I write quotations around the word friends But I have a couple that have always been there for me And I missed some fun 'cause I worked through the dawn Expecting your praise when I returned home But I paid the cost 'cause I got left alone for the songs But I can't go back And I don't want to 'Cause all my mistakes They brought me to you
