With the conflict on the outside and the fear within
It's hard to find the courage to begin again
I'm one of the downcast and 
I don't want this to last
It's in the past
It's in the past
It's in the past
It's in the past
There's comfort in the knowledge 
I have reconciled
Keeping count of the briefs that 
I have filed
I'm one of the downcast and 
I don't want this to last
It's in the past
It's in the past
It's in the past
It's in the past
