Pictures of myself
Pass through my vision
Flashes of past
Stream through my mind
Faces of people
I used to know
Sketches of places
I used to go

Gone
Laid in rest
Retrogressed
Self-possessed

I saw a new way
Discarnate
Kill
Regret
Heal
Transgression

Opened eyes
Restored mind
Feelings once forgotten
Haunting stains
Endless pain
Reduced back to nothing
Hopes arise
Memories die
Fighting for the future
Here and now
Deep inside
Ascending through this rebirth

Flashbacks of mistakes
Of distant failures
Memories of loss
For things not done
Burden of guilt
For burning bridges
Stab wounds from trusting
Those I should've not
