Don't look back.
Don't Look Back
I feel this pain
It’s always in my brain
I make a mistake
And find I can’t take
It back
I’m always under attack
These memories never fade
They’re little blades
That pierce my heart
I feel like a dart
Being thrown head first
Into a brick wall
I stall
Trying to hold it together
But it doesn’t matter whether
I stay calm or inflamed
This shame still lingers
I look at my fingers
And wonder why they shake
My heart is always about to break
I wish I could just forget
Every wrong decision I’ve made
Haven’t I paid
Enough for my crimes?
I feel this shame
My life feels like a game
That will never be played
I dwell on the past
My luck won’t ever last
I wish I could make it all better
But what does it matter?
It shouldn’t be the mistakes you make
It should be how you take
Every breath
In this confusing life
Do you deal with your strife,
Or will you be like me?
And never be
Your old self again,
Or anything greater
For that matter?
Deal with your lingering pain
And everything you can’t gain
Live your life like nothing can hold you
Don’t be an old shoe
Don’t be me
Forever be
The person you’ve longed to
Through and through
Don’t do as I have done
And go have some fun
While this life is still yours.
