Oh, when I was young I was so full of fear
I hid behind anger, held back the tears
It was me against the world, I was sure that I'd win
But the world fought back, punished me for my sins.

I felt so alone, so insecure
I blamed you instead, made sure I was heard
And they tried to warn me of my evil ways
But I wouldn't hear what they had to say.

I was wrong, self destruction's 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
Well, I'm sorry that I hurt them, did I hurt you too?
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
The world fought back, punished me for my sins.
And they tried to warn me, of my evil ways,
But I couldn't hear what they had to say.

I was wrong, self destruction's got me again,
I was wrong, I realize now that I was wrong.
I was wrong, yeah
I was wrong.

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 society's blood running down my face,
Somebody help me get outta this place.
How could someone's bad luck last so long?
Until I realized that I was wrong.

I was wrong, self destruction's got me again
I was wrong, I realize now that I was wrong
I was wrong, self destruction's got me again
I was wrong, the only moment that I was me.

I was wrong
