Mistakes of My Youth

In the waning days ahead I gotta look back down the road. I know that it's not too late. All the stupid things I've said And people I've hurt in my time. I hope it's not my fate To keep defeating my own self And keep repeating yesterday. I can't keep defeating myself I can't keep repeating, the mistakes of my youth. In the dark of night, I might Be able to make myself think That I'm still a younger man. But when the light of day shines down There's no way to get around it I'm not the younger man. I keep defeating my own self And keep repeating yesterday. I can't keep defeating myself I can't keep repeating, the mistakes of my youth. The choice is mine for making A better road ahead The road that I've been taking Headed for a dead-end But it's not too late to turn around In the final moments I hope that I know that I tried To do best I could To stop defeating my own self And stop repeating yesterday. I can't keep defeating myself I can't keep repeating, the mistakes of my youth.
