Getting Peace

The only thing that got me through, was knowing that one day you would pay too, Knowing that no matter how much you fight, and no matter how much you lie, One day you will die, And when you are on your knees before the great one, You will not be able to hide all that you have done, There will be no hiding each time you broke my heart, Each time your words tore me apart, There will be no hiding how you tried to kill me, Your cruelty will be an open book for you and him to see, I have peace knowing that whatever you do, No matter how you may lie to those around you, No matter how many others you affect with your disease, You will still pay for what you did to me, And because I have that knowledge I can be at peace, I can forgive you and I can move on with ease.
