Burn After Writing

A letter written to my past self, yeah
Don't treat your youth like a jail cell, yeah

If I could do things differently
If life weren't a mystery

I'd tell myself
Not to go waste your time alone, a lonely throne
I would change everything
I would change everything

Wish I didn't dwell on heartache, yeah
Wish I had known it's just a headache, yeah
Wish I'd spent more nights away
Throwing up behind a pizza place
Instead of studying biology
Wish I'd studied more anatomy

If I could do things differently
If life weren't a mystery

I'd tell myself
Not to go waste your time alone, a lonely throne
I would change everything
I would change everything

In retrospect, I should forget it
I turned out fine
I'll burn this letter, I'll just forget it
I turned out fine

I'd tell myself
Don't dwell on the great unknown, you're not alone
I wouldn't change a thing
I wouldn't change a thing

I'll burn this letter
And with it my fears and regrets
Let the shreds collide with the air
I regret nothing
Because life is the greatest puzzle
And all of my hurdles became pieces
That made my reflection appear
