Rage

Question

Hello guys!

I want to know if these sentences have the same meaning and I could replace them without problems.

1. And if I stay I might do something I know I regret, take back everything I said in rage.

2. And if I stay I might do something I know I regret, take back everything I said when I was angry.

"in rage" and "when I was angry" can be used as substitutes, but the rest of your sentence needs help. I think this is what you're trying to say.

And if I stay, I might do something I know I'll regret.

I take back everything I said [in rage / in anger / when I was angry].

Hi,

Yes, 'in rage' and 'when i was angry' are very similar, although rage seems stronger than anger.

However, I'm not clear on the overall meaning of either sentence, and the tense seems a bit shaky. Can you say it a slightly diffferent way?

Don't make a habit of starting a sentence with 'and'.

Clive.

Thanks guys! You're always helping me!

You really rock!

And the sentence is 'I will regret' you were right! I don't know why I forgot to put the future auxiliary.

And maybe it doesn't much sense because it's a part of a song. You know, in songs there's a freedom for some things ahaha ^^

Thanks!
