stain

 

Running away from life, it's a frame that I live in

Began as throwing rocks, now I'm forced to climb a mountain

Run today, to the ones you love 'fore hate creates tomorrow

Deception believes in you, and that's allright for sorrow

Come now, to a light you've forgotten

Stand up, Petty indifference is just a stain

 

You sold it all before you reaped, now it's full of emptiness

Don't compete with something you can't beat

but you can rest with the best

Sink now, under the water in the rain

Sink now, under the water in your pain

For you are just a stain
