Afflicted Past

Hatred evokes the memories
That make your blood run cold.
Fear and sorrow
Push you away from yourself.
How can you face the world,
When you can’t face the mirror?
How can you leave your past
With blood on your hands?
Can you run away all your life?
Can you escape your punishment?
How many times
Can you start it all again?
And how many lies
Will it take to cover your tracks?
How can you face the world,
When you can’t face the mirror?
How can you leave your past
With blood on your hands?
Can you run away all your life?
Can you escape your punishment?
No matter how far you go.
Those days are right behind.
The facade of your perfect life
Can not hide your perfect past.
There is no escape.
No escape!
No escape!
No escape!
No escape!
