|
When all my pain to rest was laid |
|
The tears had dried, the changes made |
|
And peace I found in Lonliness |
|
As gentle, caring emptiness |
|
Old rituals gone, the past denied |
|
To grave be laid the tears I cried |
|
And find the strength to feel and see |
|
The fate that lies ahead of me |
|
The time has come to turn the tide |
|
To break the bonds that years have tied |
|
A time of change - A time of gain |
|
To clean the soul with healing rain |
|
Betrayal, lie, dishonesty |
|
Of those who had surrounded me |
|
Filled the emptiness inside |
|
And took my honor, and my pride |
|
And as my tongue spoke foreign words |
|
And my hands did work, not mine |
|
I stepped away from my own self |
|
I felt I had to clean their traces |
|
Crush their words, erase their faces |
|
Kill their presence deep in me |
|
To open my eyes to see |
