put away distractions
hide the bottle and the cigarettes
and in this silent fashion
i'm learning to accept regret

i can't go back the way it was
i tell myself that's a good thing

never fit there in the first place
the space between has got me paralyzed

i can't go back the way it was
i tell myself that's a good thing
i can't take back the failures
all i have is a head of memories
