Return To The Past

No matter what you think or do
That bell you know, does toll for you
Once unrung, it never rings true

The past is done, the die's been cast
Phony claims, cannot ever last
Glad that time has finally past

Walk carefully where you have tread
Look far ahead, deny the dread
Right the wrongs, those things left unsaid

How did you ever fall off track
Some clamor, thinking to go back
Should you return, you'll get no slack
