Make things right (2008)

In solitude
i let my mind briefly tread
the life that i way back led

and sometimes wonder at 
all the things that i had done
things i had done for fun

Much joy it gave me then
my mind like a bird did soar
but it don't do that no more

becoz i have now seen
all its uselessness for me
results, i was meant to see

i blame myself alone
for all the useless things done
which can never be undone

i then wish there were things
i could do to make things right
to drop the burden that'd make the heart light

but see, this is the truth
there is nothing i can do
nothing one can do for you

for this is how life is
we do right and we do wrong
from birth to death all along

Herein lies the lesson
and herein lies the beauty
of our life on earth you see

the mistakes that i'd done
were there just to let me know
the right way for me to go

if it weren't for the mistakes
i had made along the way
i'd not have learnt to say

thank you lord for everything
that had come along my way
all the mistakes and regrets
will now lead me the right way
