boy.

I didn't have a clue what I was getting into

It all made sense when I was in high school

It's funny how I changed for somebody to approve

Only now in the mirror, I see what I stood to lose

'Cause when I was younger

I never thought that

I would meet this side of me

But now that I'm older

I know all the failures

Are just the parts that made him me

If that boy were to meet me

I don't know if he'd like me

He'd probably say I'm a bad dream

While I'm here thinking the same thing

But soon he'll find

Over 2 years time

That life's an uphill fight

If that boy were to meet me

I know he wouldn't like me

I've never left this city, it don't ever feel the same

One second it feels like a heaven, the next I'm dying to escape

It should be easier to block out the noise

But how do you stop what you haven't felt before

'Cause when I was younger

I never thought that

I would meet this side of me

But now that I'm older

I know all the failures

Are just the parts that made him me

If that boy were to meet me

I don't know if he'd like me

He'd probably say I'm a bad dream

While I'm here thinking the same thing

But he'll soon find

Over 2 years time

That life's an uphill fight

If that boy were to meet me

I know he wouldn't like me

'Cause when I was younger

I never thought that

I would meet this side of me

But now that I'm older

I know all the failures

Are just the parts that made him me
