My past is leaking into my present
I can't see the face I had some years ago
And the failure has invaded me, And there are scars I cannot handle
Where is the man I used to know? Where is the strength I used to have?
My past is leaking into my present. And I cannot see a future.
All that I've written and all that I've read
Seem meaningless and empty
Like a blank sheet of a book never written
Like the earth without sun. Like the moon without darkness.
My prayers seem to be empty too
And that's the worst... that's the worst
I've tried to stand back on my feet
But nothing leaves me...nothing leaves me...
My past is leaking into my present
The sky does not seem blue anymore
And the nights have never been that cold
I've never felt so alone before
There are no cats anymore at my feet. Neither joy nor laughter
Memories drown me, memories drown me
My past is leaking into my present
And though I felt that death is never far away
I envy the ones that reached him in glory I envy the ones that stood on their feet
Before the final step...my past is leaking into my present
