Leaving the past behind is hard when it scorched your path The future covered in ashes A steady breeze blowing it back in your face Choking on memorizes that can't be erased Making it hard to forgot Polluted airwaves From a tragic event Now the trek you on has been permanently marked Each step taken The ground gives at your feet Beaten to a pummel in advance Now every advance you take makes you think it will all end the same The future, today's past Makes moving on impossible When you have a scorched past
