Dust From the Past
Dust from the past, layered in youths callow
Desperate to be forgiven, for sins committed
Wrongs done in ignorance should be omitted
Dust from the past, covers the shallow
Fear of failure, insecure self worth
Heat needs to rise from this emotional hearth
Dust from the past, it casts a shadow
Anxious to wash it away, make it clean
Start over, be clearly seen
To late...
