Mistakes of My Youth/Wonderful, Glorious
[Mistakes of My Youth]

In the waning days ahead
I gotta look back down the road
I know that it's not too late
All the stupid things I've said
The people I've hurt and let down
But I hope it's not my fate

To keep defeating my own self
And keep repeating yesterday
I can't keep defeating myself
I can't keep repeating
The mistakes of my youth

In the dark of night, I might
Be able to make myself think
That I'm still a younger man
But when the light of day shines down
There's no way to get around it
I'm not the younger man

I keep defeating my own self
And keep repeating yesterday
I can't keep defeating myself
I can't keep repeating
The mistakes of my youth
The choice is mine for making
A better road ahead
The road that I've been taking
Headed for a dead-end
But it's not too late to turn around

In the final moments
I hope that I know that I tried
To do the best I could

To stop defeating my own self
And stop repeating yesterday
I can't keep defeating myself
I can't keep repeating
The mistakes of my youth

[Wonderful, Glorious]

The sum of all your experiences
A living breathing result of the fight
And every night you spent shrouded in darkness
Has led you to this moment in the light, it's alright

Wonderful, glorious
Wonderful, glorious
Ahh ahh ahh ah, ah ah...

Wonderful, glorious

The sum of all the love inside your heart
Will get you through your plight, it's alright

Wonderful, glorious

My love is beautiful, it's here for the taking
It's strong and pure and utterly earth shaking
My love has brought me here to show you it's true
A wretch like me, you'll make it through
