Mere apologies won't undo what you've done   The echoes linger on, the backlash has begun   Feigned indifference, your least convincing mask   But deep down inside, its forgivness that you ask      When hurt and lies become the currency   All it buys us is more tragedy   Hide behind the veil of ignorance   But every action has a consequence      More sleepless nights, your conscience rouses you   Self-medicate, so you can make it through   Every day goes by at a slow and sickly pace   You chose to live a lie, now it can't be erased      When hurt and lies become the currency   All it buys us is more tragedy   Hide behind the veil of ignorance   But every action has a consequence      You're breaking up, the clock is running out   Guilt eats you alive and fills your soul with doubt   Brought to your knees by what you did and said   The echos linger on, resounding in your head
