Even moving past bad times, you still have them in your heart every day to overcome.

I take a look over my shoulder

i see the doorway to what i once was

the darkness that groomed my soul

i cannot go back, it is the past

but being there let the Devil in

he sits there now, watching for me to fall

disintegrating grace

so he can summon upon me once more

to carry out his dirty deeds

to hit the rocks of hell again

to see the flames of damnation scar my face like before

but i will not betray myself

no longer straddle my burdens upon my back

i will find away to glide in the light for eternity more

in the path of all hope, lost in the stars
