You pay for it everday. No matter what you do now. No matter how much you've changed And in your heart, you know you've changed. No one from your past, especially the ones you loved, The ones you hurt, and the ones you loved to hurt repeatedly. No one will ever see you for who you know you have become, no, People only know and see the past, your whole hamper of ***** laundry.
They only render you with a nostalgia of disgust and pity And tell everyone who mentions your name About the things you did, the actions for which you repent. The price you pay everyday for the person of yesterday.
The one who paled with every drug Cannot repay. The one who speaks can only shrug And pray
For another day to wash away The grime that's left and always stays. The one who walks in public stained Will wince and pay for another day.
