Past

Time does nothing lately I'm paused in the past Was there something I forgot Is this feeling going to last I close my eyes only to see darkness I open them to remember darkness And if by chance I forget I'll be reminded every day By memory's I can't suppress Memories that never go away The sting of each hit Hard across my face Only to remind me I mustn't forget my place The feeling of the hunger that burns inside me still All the things I had to see and do much agenst my will The feeling of the cord wrapped around my wrist The sound of muffled noises from beneath the tape With the back of a broom a belt or a sandal I thought then there's nothing I can't handle I'm still broken you see All the once beautiful parts of me I can't be free Even far away the memories sill haunt me
