Painful memories of childhood gone wrong
Caress you with their shadows, dark and oh so long
Living for the moment, not caring what comes next
Creates the perfect person so confused and so complex
Ride the easy wave that drugs lovingly provide
Shunning all reality, learn to run and hide
Know so many people yet not know a single thing
Now you are the puppet, hanging from dead strings
Sins against your dignity come with disturbing ease
A follower of failure suffering some dark disease
Deep down you live in pain, sorrow, and regret
Only years may teach the lessons delusions help forget
Roads to hell wind through darkness but also cross through light
You hide out in the open keeping clear of other's sight
Grainy, faded memories, they color wrong the past
A fool's complacent dogma, this self-charade won't last
