Well, I never did a lot of drugs
They never appealed to me as much as they seemed to to a lot of my friends
And that's no judgement on them - either way, it's hard to say
That any of us knew what we were doing back then
I was a virgin 'till I was 19, because before then I believed that God
Would burn my soul if I couldn't control myself
And I still though that after the fact, it only happened because I was at the point
Where my desire for sex outgrew my fear of hell
So tell me now - how's that for a hard sell?

I was never the type to hop trains, it just never felt like an authentic thing
For the kind of person I was back then
A middle class, suburban kid torn between fear and the fear of not fitting in
Figuring out the pieces and what they meant

It's so hard to say, why we should do anything
It's so hard to say why we should be anything
But I know that in the end we'll find mistakes we made
Will not define who we are

Well, I think we have a habit of looking back
And all the things we'd change given a reset
But those things are now a central part of the person that you now are
So are you changing the past just because you don't like your present?
And if that's the case why not just change your present?

Cause I used to have regrets - should have done more drugs
Should have had more sex
Should have hopped that train to nowhere and such
But now I think I love myself too much
Yeah, now I think I love myself too much
Yeah, now I think I love myself too much
Yeah, now I think I love myself too much
And I hope one day you'll love yourself too much
Yeah, I hope one day you'll love yourself too much
