Lyrics
Leave the Past Behind
Verse 1
Maybe today is the day that I?ll leave the past behind.
Maybe it?ll all fade away like a phantom from my weary mind.
There are times when it feels like I?m getting a handle,
But then I?m back in.
And there are times when everything feels like its fading,
And I can?t forget where I?ve been.
Chorus 1
Maybe its not worth the trouble I?m taking?
That?s what it tells me.
But maybe is all that I have when I just want to fucking die?
when it feels like I?ll fucking die.
Verse 2
Maybe seems stronger this morning ? Its saying it?ll all be fine.
And it feels like with some work I might end up tearing a hole in the night.
But it?s a laugh, cause its gone but I still cant escape it ? I can?t even touch it.
And the past will leave you with nothing but memories,
Or pain if you let it.
Chorus 2
Maybe I?ll wish that I?d died but that?s better than not fucking trying.
And maybe is better than nothing.
I know that it?s not a lot,
But at least it gives me a shot.
Maybe?s a glimmer of hope and its shining in these dark walls.
