Erase

So many times I've taken chances Lead to second guessing Or loss of what I once knew So much for sticking up for others Now I'm brand as a meddler I have a white knight attitude How often do you think of traversing back in time Just to have five seconds for a history rewrite If I could just kill today And wipe it from the slate Soak it up in kerosene And lay it to waste I don't believe that everything happens for a reason I've made mistakes and I've paid for them with guilt Nobody lied and told me life would be easy But I guess in the back of my mind I still retained some hope How often do you think of traversing back in time Just to have five seconds for a history rewrite If I could just kill today And wipe it from the slate Soak it up in kerosene And lay it to waste Delete it from my memory Completely disregard fate Make a deal with father time Permanently erase I can't come to terms with who I've become Twenty four years old, completely numb Lie down in this grave that I've dug Twenty four years old completely numb I don't believe that everything happens for a reason I've made mistakes and I've paid for them with guilt Nobody lied and told me life would be easy But I guess in the back of my mind I still retained some hope If I could just kill today And wipe it from the slate Soak it up in kerosene And lay it to waste Delete it from my memory Completely disregard fate Make a deal with father time Permanently erase
