When I drive to fast and hit a wall, or drink myself to the hospital, i'm the only one to blame

 And as sirens haunt my city streets, and though that sound is after me, calmly I await the change

 

 So don't wait for the world to get better

 You're gonna waste the time you have

 And you won't get it back

 

 When you fall, when you break, when you wish you didn't feel

 Keep your head, don't forget, it's the pain that makes us real

 I know most of the time, it's hard to keep in mind, from lessons learned

 Comes better life

 

 When I play too hard and break my bones, depress myself to the lowest lows, I'm the only one to blame

 Cause the choice is mine and mine alone, and I choose to learn as I go, clarity will come from pain

 

 My understanding of the world feels broken

 And it's demanding my immediate attention

 You're looking up, believing you will leave your problems below

 Forget what you believe, use what you know
