LETTER TO MY YOUNGER SELF - LYRICS

I’m aware that you don’t know me
But this is you at age 23
I remember all the days of feeling numb
Looking up from the bottom

You refuse to eat but you don’t know why
It’s because you want to die
And you don’t know if you’re trying to hold on
Or just disappear completely

And I know that you’re not well and the future looks like hell
And happiness seems completely out of reach
But I promise you’ll be fine and the pain will fade with time
But the people that I’ve left behind still haunt me

So To whom it may concern: I’m not about to break
Cause each and every day I will make mistakes
And I know that I’ve done wrong but it’s all behind me now
I’m sorry that I let you down
To whom it may concern

Despite how far I’ve come; the distance I have roamed
I’m still not who I want to be
I know you’re tired and think no one understands
But just take ten more steps to me and you’re home

To whom it may concern: I’m not about to break
Cause each and every day I will make mistakes
And I know that I’ve done wrong but it’s all behind me now
I promise that I’ll make you proud
To whom it may concern

To whom it may concern

I’m aware that you don’t know me
But this is you at age 23
