Chapter 1: Never Look Back
Stretched hearts pinned down with broken glass
Fighting for every pathetic beat
Living in the present, but constantly haunted
By the way things used to be
So now they face the truth
They didn't know that behind a convincing smile
Brewed thoughts of hate and pain, fear and death
A most fragile frame, praying for her last breath…
The ignorance they held tight to
Is suffocated by shaking hands…heavy tears
As they turn their back on their friend
Walk past the pile of roses
En Everest of petals to salute her beauty, commemorate her years
They don't have the courage to look back
To see how they let her fall
They will forever carry the burden of slaves
And those who stand by, are the ones who didn't understand
As they watched the coffin lower in her grave…
They all whisper…”She was so young, it's so sad.”
“I would have given her everything she never had.”
No…they didn't understand that now…
They live their lives mourning in black
But she…is gone…
And will never miss it enough to look back.
