Lyrics of Mistakes of my youth / wonderful, glorious

In the waning days ahead,
I gotta look back down the road.
I know that it's not too late.
All the stupid things i've said,
And people i've hurt in my time.
I hope it's not my fate

To keep defeating my own self,
And keep repeating yesterday.
I can't keep defeating myself,
I can't keep repeating,
The mistakes of my youth.

In the dark of night, i might
Be able to make myself think
That i'm still a younger man.
But when the light of day shines down,
There's no way to get around it,
I'm not the younger man.

I keep defeating my own self,
And keep repeating yesterday.
I can't keep defeating myself,
I can't keep repeating,
The mistakes of my youth.

The choice is mine for making
A better road ahead
The road that i've been taking,
Headed for a dead-end,
But it's not too late to turn around

In the final moments
I hope that i know that i tried
To do best i could

To stop defeating my own self
And stop repeating yesterday.
I can't keep defeating myself,
I can't keep repeating,
The mistakes of my youth.
