Older now
Less sure somehow
Wiser than
I've ever felt
Fingers burnt
And lessons learnt
There's so much I'd say
To my forming self
Don't react
Be a cooler cat
But don't be deterred
Just choose your battles well
And if I'd known then
What I know now
Could I have chosen differently
Or taken other paths?
If I'd known then
What I know now
Would I have chosen differently
Or taken another path?
Have more sympathy
Even empathy
They're not pathetic feelings
They're a form of wealth
Be more dice thrown
Less a dog with a bone
Be more content
With yourself
And if I'd known then
What I know now
Could I have chosen differently
Or taken other paths?
If I'd known then
What I know now
Would I have chosen differently
Or taken another path?
I could have
I should have
But would I have?
Be not just words
Be actions too
What would I do?
Would it help?
And if I'd known then
What I know now
Could I have chosen differently
Or taken other paths?
If I'd known then
What I know now
Would I have chosen differently
Or taken another path?
I could have
I should have
But would I have?
I could have
I should have
But would I have?
