He was waiting there for his answers to come
But they never went his way
So he made a choice with his whole life changing
He's going somewhere far away

And all this time he was so sure
He'd make it if he tried
But he didn't know that he just chose
The wrong path this time

How can it be that he didn't see
His life wasn't too bad
Why would he make the biggest mistake of his life
It's true
And he never knew

Now he's all alone
No one's there to help him
To live the life that he had dreamed
Will he ever learn
Things aren't always easy
If you give up, you'll never be

And he never knew
He'd regret the choice that he once made
He's a failure
And he'll stay that way

How can it be that he still can't see
He threw his life away
Why would he make the biggest mistake
And leave his life this day
Its true
And he never knew
