YESTERYEAR
by Matt Krug

Memory this is killing me, too much pain down every street
Left it behind and I swore I never want to come back round here again

Growing up doesn�t leave no prisoners, just a path of self destruction
Broken ties and bridges burnt down, mistakes just take another piece away

You�re worst is done, but I�ll still go on, you�re worst is done

Too late to wait till tomorrow, you�re still stuck in your yesteryear
Who leads, who follows, It�s too dark for anyone of us to see

My breath is choked by the dust in the air
Kicked up off the floor, I�ll kick up some more
Memories off the self that I never felt
You never let me, you never let me
Echoes of screams keep repeating
Never wanted to hurt you too
I pushed you away and you pushed right back
Pushed me into running away from home
It never felt like home

So much pain so familiar, It�s like I can smell it in the air
This old house could swallow you hole, If only you were here
But you�re not here

Words I can�t ever believe came floating softly from my lips
To hit you harder than a bag of bricks, did they hurt you as much as me

You�re worst is done, but I�ll still go on, you�re worst is done

Too late to wait till tomorrow, you�re still stuck in your yesteryear
Who leads, who follows, It�s too dark for anyone of us to see

My breath is choked by the dust in the air
Kicked up off the floor, I�ll kick up some more
Memories off the self that I never felt
You never let me, you never let me
Echoes of screams keep repeating
Never wanted to hurt you too
I pushed you away and you pushed right back
Pushed me into running away from home
It never felt like home

Too many tears, have been cried here
I lock them away so I can pretend I was never here

I don�t want to see this place again, I barely made it out alive the first time
These images etched in my skin, I won�t let them be my end
I did my time, I fell in line, but I won�t change my state of mind
Never will they silence me, I know someday that I�ll be free
