|
Looking over my shoulder at the road that follows |
|
What once seemed to matter now dust at my feet |
|
Memories whisper at the edge of perception |
|
Silent reminders of a life incomplete |
|
And all that remains |
|
Are the scars to remind me |
|
And all the lives |
|
I've thrown away |
|
And all that remains |
|
Are the bars that confine me |
|
To a past |
|
I can't escape |
|
Words that are unspoken are now reminders |
|
Each second dies a silent death unmourned |
|
I tried as a martyr to lead her, to guide her |
|
Now I'm alone painted by the color of scorn |
|
And all that remains |
|
Are the scars to remind me |
|
And all the lives |
|
I've thrown away |
|
And all that remains |
|
Are the bars that confine me |
|
To a past |
|
I can't escape |
