I am the settler that dwells in your mind I am the illness you wish to unwind I ask why you would do that, tis’ this I implore I am the burden that lies at your door I am a robber of happiness indeed I am now a tree which has grown from a seed A mistake from your past or unkindly gesture It makes no difference to me, so in your mind I will fester I will spread like a legion and invade like pestilence I will break your will and destroy your confidence I will never leave your mind until you can forgive and forget I think I’ll remain, let’s make a bet

Guilt
I am the settler that dwells in your mind I am the illness you wish to unwind I ask why you would do that, tis’ this I implore I am the burden that lies at your door I am a robber of happiness indeed I am now a tree which has grown from a seed A mistake from your past or unkindly gesture It makes no difference to me, so in your mind I will fester I will spread like a legion and invade like pestilence I will break your will and destroy your confidence I will never leave your mind until you can forgive and forget I think I’ll remain, let’s make a bet
