I'm trying to remember
The guy I used to be
That fearless asshole
Who would stand against the sea

I wish I could understand
How I got like this
I went from a warrior
To almost worthless

I've been at the bottom before
It's nothin new for me
But where once I was one with the darkness
Now it frightens me

And I wish I could understand
Or at least start to relearn
How that guy I used to be
Could fight so recklessly

I'm all out of energy
And seemingly out of luck
I just want to lie down
'Cause I stopped giving a fuck

I'm trying to remember
The guy I used to be
That fearless asshole
Who would stand against the sea

I looked in the mirror this morning
Wiped away the steam
I hoped to see a honorable man
But all I saw was me

Where did I go wrong
What changed me
When did I go from fearless
To cowering at every scene

I had so much courage
I would take on any fight
No thought for my life
Just the need to land every strike

Now I can barely make it through the day
Without breaking down
I want to stand up tall
I want to fight again
But my heads smashed in the dirt
And I've no strength to give

I looked in the mirror this morning
Wiped away the steam
I hoped to see a honorable man
But all I saw was me

I'm trying to remember
The guy I used to be
That fearless asshole
Who would stand against the sea

Where did I go wrong
What changed me
When did I go from fearless
To cowering at every scene
musings of my mood swings
