A Very Confusing Time (For Us All)

There used to be a time where my life was so easy
And living life wasn’t so very hard
But now I take 2 steps forward and end up 3 steps back
I’m not getting anywhere, I’m not getting very far
Sometimes I get so confused
And it gets to the point where I don’t know what to do
So please tell me my friend
Is your life confusing to you too
I remember when we used to have to mend
Scraped up knees, and broken bones
But now we have to pick up the pieces of shattered hearts
And put back the pieces of all the broken homes
There used to be a time when having fun was so easy
And we didn’t have to worry about anything
But now things have changed so much
And if anything goes wrong, it messes up everything
It used to be where you could go to bed at night
And not have a single fear upon your mind
But now you have to worry about getting stabbed and shot
Or becoming sick, deaf, dumb, and blind
I used to love to live every day that I was alive
But now I just want to turn my head and cry
I wake up every morning, regretting everything
I want to run away from the world and say goodbye
I know I must sound stupid
And I know I must be dumb
But everything is so confusing
And not only to me, but to everyone
If I could go back in time I would
And change every single day
Instead of looking back on it now
And having to regret everything that I say
I’m sure that we all feel the same
That we could go back in time and change it all
So we could have the chance to fix our mistakes
And see ourselves before we were going to fall
To go back and erase all the mistakes that we’ve made
And make everything alright again
Make everything the way it should be
Do everything the way it needs to be, fix every sin
Stop all of the wars and fights
Make peace with each other
Treat others the way we wanted to be treated
And love everyone like they were a brother
I don’t know why this world is so confusing
I would fix it all if I could
And I know that you would help me
Everyone knows that they should
Maybe if we had the answers to everything
And everything had a reason or a rhyme
Then maybe it could all be better
And it wouldn’t be such a confusing time
