As I lay Dieing
As I lay dieing
I stop and wonder if I lived life to the Fullest
I remember the times I worked instead of being with my family
Or being so stressed that I would drink every night to make the pain disappear
The thought of being alone killed me
On those lonely nights when I was on travel in some foreign country
Because of this I lost my wife and kids
At times it seemed like my only friends was the alcohol and my work
So as I lay dieing
My biggest fear came true
I’m alone
And you ask me if I would change anything in the past
Hell yeah I would
But it’s too late now
There are no second chances in life
No rewind button
