Array ( [sid] => 51177 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Chances [time] => 2004-06-09 16:10:57 [hometext] => Um, this is a song I wrote last year, and its not to show the consequences of our decisions, but to show the importance of good choices and how sometimes we just can't go back no matter how much we want to, but also to never give up or lose faith [bodytext] => Walking down, the dark, dismal alley of my life
Up ahead, nothing but the gloominess of the night
And as I look behind, I'm losing my mind
As I realize, my life is a meaningless...lie

If I had just one more chance to prove myself,
Just me in control of my life, nobody else!
God, just give me one more day,
To find my way, and
I promise I'll stay, on the path of good judgement
If I had just one chance, it won't take two
I swear everyday, I'll make it up to you
But, that chance I need,
Will never be.

People, they say, they know what I'm going through,
But they don't understand, no they don't have a clue!
I've made some terrible mistakes
But there's no way to make them all go away.
I don't hate you
I don't want us to be through
And as I lay in bed,
The words running through my head,
Oh, I wish I could take back every those things I said
And all those people who tried to save me,
Who gave me hope
And I let them down,
And my world came crashing down

Everyone who tried to help, I pushed them away
So nobody would bother to stay.
I was yearning for a helping hand
But I was too afraid to take a stand.
So, this is me, and my life
It seems there's no salvation to stop my endless cry..
And I was scared and felt like I didn't belong
And I know I've done so much wrong
Now I see you there, all alone
I take a deep breath, so here I go
Things are never as hopeless as they seem
And now I have my chance, to redeem. [comments] => 0 [counter] => 144 [topic] => 34 [informant] => IrOnAnNe1020 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SongLyrics )
