Don't Look Back
Quelle: Spotify
By now there's no mistaking
Why I'll not get paroled
The jail's of my own making
From grudges I still hold
Built up from years of anger
Turning to stone
I do my time inside, alone
No break along these fences
I stare out past that gate
Behind my best defenses
I plan my great escape
The key would be forgiveness
Let down my guard
Cold steel has turned my heart so hard
Don't look back on the sad decisions
That kept me who I used to be
I felt the light but had no vision
'Till you came and set me free
Don't look back at the lock-down ending
Strike that set like a sleight of hand
Nothing there that's worth defending
Turn those walls to wind and sand
Regret takes every minute. No time that it won't steal
And when my mind stays in it, that prison feels so real
My mirrors all get shattered. Small price to pay
It's just the past that blocks my way
Don't look back at the smug and clever
The fortress walls that gave me pride
Set my heart apart forever
And made my anger justified
Don't look back to the world of hurtin'
That need to feel so right was wrong
I made a trade to be so certain
And paid the price for way too long
Don't look back till we're out in the open
Those dark days can't hold me now
When I almost gave up hoping
You brought me through the light somehow
Don't look back at the cage that bound me
All those times you told me so
The righteous rage I built around me
I finally have to let it go It's only the past, I know
Only the past held me down: only the past held me. So DON'T LOOK BACK
