I am leaving this world alone
with nothing to prove
yet everything to lose
with a chip on my shoulder
and my heart on my sleeve

I came to this decision alone
with contempt for my past
chasing redemption from your hand
for atonement for my deeds
and penance for all my sins

but I know am a lost cause
because I can't change the past
yet I try
and then I cry
because I can't right my wrongs
lest I leave the world for real.
