now I've found a little time
to take a look back
from the caboose
and follow the tracks of my life
they're tangled about lying true
and I know it's just me
and my point of view
but those are the
important two
I don't need
to check with the crowd
wouldn't it be nice to be proud
a door was open
and into the night
I jumped through
and turned on the light
I started to see
thought it wasn't that bright
I saw an island sky
but it wasn't all blue
my answers weren't right
but I didn't wanna lose
so I'd put up a fight
and scream out loud
wouldn't it be nice to be proud
and when it all is clear
your time to repair disappears
taking with it chances left untried
I see my friends
huddled together
tryin' to stay warm
in nasty weather
we'd beat the odds
whenever they'd call
and all the jokes
that I played on friends
never did get
me in the end
I guess I was
given more than allowed
wouldn't it be nice to be proud
and when it all is clear
your time to repair disappears
taking with it chances left untried
