Can my wounds be clothed By the sands of time? My dirt be cleansed By its flowing stream? My crimes forgotten By its weathered hand? Then tell me— Which amount of days Can mend my lies? Which amount of weeks Can dry their cries? Which amount of years Can let the pain die? Please… Tell me if time Can truly do this.

Unhealable Wound
Can my wounds be clothed By the sands of time? My dirt be cleansed By its flowing stream? My crimes forgotten By its weathered hand? Then tell me— Which amount of days Can mend my lies? Which amount of weeks Can dry their cries? Which amount of years Can let the pain die? Please… Tell me if time Can truly do this.
