Haunted

I can't let go of the past
It holds on tight to me 
Loves that never last 
Or the girl I used to be 

Memory seem to haunt me 
The ghost of yesterday
Reminding me constantly 
Of what I lost along the way 

If only I had done things right 
And made some different choices 
My future would be big and bright 
Not filled with haunted voices 
If I can leave it all behind me 
In the past where it belongs 
I might see who I could be 
And Maybe right some wrongs 

Memories seem to haunt me 
The ghosts of yesterday 
Remind me constantly 
Of what I lost along way 

Invisible chains hold me in place 
Binding my memories to me 
I close my eyes and see the face 
Of the me I used to be
All the things I should have said 
And all the people I betrayed
The Selfish life I've always lived
And the prices that I paid 
Whispers of my past still echo
Filling my head with regret 
The ghost of the me I used to be 
Haunts me forever,  never to forget
