When I was young, I was the nicest guy I knew |
|
I thought I was the chosen one |
|
But time went by and I found out a thing or two |
|
My shine wore off as time wore on |
|
And I thought that I was living out the perfect life |
|
But in the lonely hours when the truth begins to bite |
|
I thought about the times |
|
When I turned my back and stalled |
|
I ain't no nice guy after all |
|
When I was young, I was the only game in town |
|
I thought I had it down for sure |
|
But time went by and I was lost in what I found |
|
The reasons blurred, the way unsure |
|
I thought that I was living life the only way |
|
But as I saw that life was more than day to day |
|
I turned around |
|
I read the writing on the wall |
|
I ain't no nice guy after all |
|
I ain't no nice guy after all |
|
In all the years you spend between your birth and death |
|
You know there's lots of times |
|
When you should have saved your breath |
|
It comes as quite a shock when that trip leads to a fall |
|
I ain't no nice guy after all |
|
I ain't no nice guy after all |
|
When I was young, I was the nicest guy I knew |
|
I thought I was the chosen one |
|
But time went by and I found out a thing or two |
|
My shine wore off as time wore on |
|
I thought that I was living out the perfect life |
|
But in the lonely hours when the truth begins to bite |
|
I thought about the times |
|
When I turned my back and stalled |
|
I ain't no nice guy after all |
|
I ain't no nice guy after all |
