Unforgiven
I can't seem to stop dreaming of the scattered bodies that lay along the way
They lost their lives years ago, but still live in me till this day
I can still see their faces, their eyes watch me so
My mind takes me to these places, to torture my troubled soul
And I'm tortured for taking the only true possession we hold in this world
Life.....and I've taken it from the young, and from the old
And this has made my heart heavy, blood cold
Sleep....I can never truly sleep
For each time I lay my head to rest, they come for me
Taking me back to that time when they lived and breathed
Doomed... am I doomed to dream on and on, nightmare after nightmare, until my soul is gone?
Oh, how I pray they'll leave me and let me live my life
It seems I cannot find love with this horror that's inside
I wish I could be like a child who never lost their innocence
But this wish can never be until I'm forgiven for my sins
