it's now part of the past
Trying to change the person I'd become
The years have come and gone so fast.
Looking back on the person I was...
just two or three years ago.
Forgive and forget isn't so easy,
There's a part of me that refuses* to let go.
So many people have come and gone
The ones I held so dear...
I'm glad they'd let go and moved on.
because I'm still stuck* back here
Another year has come and gone
That's all that I can think.
Wasting away a life I had
Washing* it down with another drink
Hoping for a change
A wish that won't come true.
Sitting here, doing nothing
the habits only grew*
I have to push through it,
I really need to try,
I need to face my problems,
instead of only cry.
This year I'll take action,
catch myself before I fall...
Not give in when all else fails
not give up on it all
Another year to come
doesn't have to all be bad,
Who knows what could change-
get back a life I once had, had.*
I'n building* up more hope,
no longer hanging by a thread
I'm standing on my own
and lifting up my head*
I'm gonna* make it different
I'm trying to move on,
please can you support me?
If the old me is finally gone?
so this is my promise
for everyone to see,
But I won't depend on others,
This time I'll change for me!

i hear alot of repetition in this, but your rhyme and message and wording is over all great. just try to reread it and get rid of the lines you had repeated and then replace them w/something else. not right away, but when u r in the mood n bored. sometimes it takes alot of going back to get things right.
Merry christmas madi. havent tt u in a while. hope all is well for u. keep this positive going
