Hindsight

One day, a day at a time
A token time piece
Marks my time and your time
Hindsight is a great thing
And like a bad play its re-run again
To a dissipated crowd
And once again I stand alone
Too young and too proud
And each their own should all beware
Of the killer that lies within
Responsibility’s a burden to bear and
A promise so hard to keep
And to say there were no signs
In the city that could purge
The sickness from my skin
Is another lie — a fantasy
For the killer is within
The killer is within
The killer is within
The killer is within me
The killer is within
The killer is within
The killer is within
The killer is within
I pulled the trigger of a gun so to speak
And took another down
My corrupt and twisted street
I never stop to look around
And each their own should all beware
Of the passion that lies within
Responsibility’s a burden to bear and
A promise so hard to keep
And to say there were no signs
In the city that could purge
The sickness from my skin
Is another lie — a fantasy
The killer is within
The killer is within
The killer is within
The killer is within me
Take it home
