Songtext von Back Then

I've been trying harder to walk straight And stay away from deep thoughts for both our sakes All that's left is nothing left to say Because this hit me like a Tidal wave There's not a chance in hell I'd make the same mistakes You couldn't grit your teeth just for another day You left me here alone I was so young and afraid (Young and afraid) Yeah, I tried writing letters to myself To get my darkest fears on surfaces less fragile than my chest I wish the best but I'll admit I lay awake in wonder If you could read them now What would you say Say to me There's not a chance in hell I'd make the same mistakes You couldn't grit your teeth just for another day You left me here alone I was so young and afraid (Young and afraid) Patiently at the end of the rope I barely know When life was split between the days that I can't sleep At times it seems that's all I need Well did you ever listen If you could hear me now I'd tell you Stay away I gave up a past that lead me to my own disease It won't rip us apart like the Tidal wave There's not a chance in hell I'd make the same mistakes You couldn't grit your teeth just for another day You left me here alone I was so young and afraid (Young and afraid)
