Regrets (Syn's Cyber Cover - originally by Mace Producer)

I searched for peace where it could never grow I learned too late it starts in what I know If I rebuild myself, stone by stone It's to stop running from who I've known We chase our dreams, but forget the ones who stay And when it all falls down, only hands remain We talk of loyalty when life feels light But in the fall, everyone picks their fight I've watched brothers turn to strangers with time And promises die before they could shine Regrets don't define the man you've become It's what you do with them that shows who you've won I don't run anymore from what I've been through 'Cause owning my faults means I'm breaking through I walk with my faults, but I don't deny We never heal what we refuse to try If my words ring true, it's 'cause I stopped to flee You only heal when you dare to rebuild, see If I reach out now, it's not to save my own But to give others what I've finally known I searched for peace where it could never grow I learned too late it starts in what I know If I rebuild myself, stone by stone It's to stop running from who I've known Every scar I carry is proof I'm alive Even if my regrets remind me I've survived But through the chaos, I came to understand You never heal until you learn to stand I wanted to be strong, but I fled when I should stay You become what you flee when love gets in the way I just wanted to shine, put out what mattered most Now even success can't reach the ones I've lost Telling the truth, even when it stings and tears Is already mending what's been broken through the years If you see yourself in these lines, a little dark Know that even shattered, you can find your spark Time won't turn back, but it teaches us to see Some truths take a lifetime just to come to be If love walked away, it wasn't chance or fate It taught me how to stop living too late And even if the road ahead feels unclear I walk with confidence, no chains to fear I stopped waiting for what I can give myself Peace starts within before it's found elsewhere I searched for peace where it could never grow I learned too late it starts in what I know If I rebuild myself, stone by stone It's to stop running from who I've known Every scar I carry is proof I'm alive Even if my regrets remind me I've survived But through the chaos, I came to understand You never heal until you learn to stand
