I hunger for the taste of happiness
glimpses of how it looked remain in the past
a promise I made that I didn't keep
brought upon emptiness and misery
losing myself searching for a way
to be the best person I can possibly be
when I look in the mirror
I don't know who I see
a person who looks nothing like me
I've worn myself out trying to succeed
I gave away everything to follow a dream
if I could be given an opportunity
to go back and change only one thing
I would keep the promise I made to him
he'd still be alive and I'd be happy again
