You are two fisted vengeance
Stealing my chances
Leaving me with missed opportunities

Your face is marked
A disgrace to the old ones
An open threat to the young

You tick to the beat of my failures
Your hands pull me into the unknown
As you continue to write my history

I hate your emotionless face
The way you pass silent judgment
The way your hands draw perpetual circles

Time

You are the self inflicted curse
Following one step behind me
Destroying my ability to right the wrongs
