Second Time Around

[Verse 1]

Tell me when it's too late for forgiveness

If I apologize

In the mirror is my only witness

And he don't sympathize

[Pre-Chorus]

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

[Chorus]

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

[Verse 2]

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

[Pre-Chorus]

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

[Chorus]

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

[Bridge]

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

[Chorus]

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

[Outro]

Second time around, mmm

I know that I can never go backwards

To undo what I've done
