Mistake
A path of endless sorrow
paved by the destruction in my wake.
I can see no bright, beautiful tomorrow
that's not a kind of future I make.
An ocean of endless tears
flowing from the hearts the cry out in pain.
Their anguished cries bring forth my inner fears
which drag me under with a dark heavy chain.
A tale of endless woe
full heartaches and immorality.
These are the seed I sow
grown by my faulty personality
Memories of endless regret
the ones that can't simply be erased.
I promised I would never forget,
all the lives I have disgraced.
The ashes of a finished flame
extinguished by my devastating crime.
Before, it was all a sick little game
but now, I'm completely out of time.
