Second Time Around

Tell me when it's too late for forgiveness
If I apologize
In the mirror is my only witness
And he don't sympathize

Been at war with myself
Makin' my friends the enemy
I let all of them down
And I've been livin' in Hell
A prison of my identity
There's nothing left of me now

I'm asking life for another chance
Before they put me in the ground
Lord, I swear I will do my best
On my second time around
I will live nothing like my past
I will make my mother proud
There will be no mistakes on my
Second time around, second time around

I don't think I can make it to Heaven
Believe me, I will try
I will not waste a day I am given
Like years I let go by

Been at war with myself
Makin' my friends the enemy
I let all of them down
And I've been livin' in Hell
A prison of my identity
There's nothing left of me now

I'm asking life for another chance
Before they put me in the ground
Lord, I swear I will do my best
On my second time around
I will live nothing like my past
I will make my mother proud
There will be no mistakes on my
Second time around, second time around

You've caught me in a thousand lies now
But I swear this is the last
And I'm scared to look you in your eyes now
But our moments left don't last
I've let down everyone that I call mine
God, I know I don't deserve it, but I need more time

When I'm asking life for another chance
Before they put me in the ground
Lord, I swear I will do my best
On my second time around
I will live nothing like my past
I will make my mother proud
There will be no mistakes on my
Second time around, second time around

Second time around, mmm
I know that I can never go backwards
To undo what I've done
