Social Distortion – I Was Wrong Lyrics

when I was young I was so full of fear
I hid behind anger and held back the tears
it was me against the world
I was sure I would win
but the world fought back
punished me for my sins
well I felt so alone
so insecure
but I blamed you instead
made sure I was heard
they tried to warn me of my evil ways
but I couldn't hear what they had to say

I was wrong..
self distructions got me again
I was wrong...
I realize now that I was wrong

and I think about my loves
well I've had a few
i'm sorry that I hurt them
did I hurt you too?
well I took what I wanted
put my heart on the shelf
but how can you love when you don't love yourself?
it was me against the world
I was sure that i'd win
but the world faught back
punished me for my sins
they tried to warn me of my evil way
but i couldn't hear what they had to say

I was wrong...
self distructions got me again
I was wrong...
I realize now that i was wrong
I was wrong...
I was wrong...

well I grew up fast
and I grew up hard
something was wrong from the very start
I was fighting everybody
I was fighting everything
but the only one that I hurt was me
I got societys blood running down my face
somebody help me get out of this place
how could someones bad luck last so long
until i realized that i was wrong
