Eternal Regret

Lost in a sea of eternal regret,
forging a life that Im soon to forget.
Moving through seas of motion and pain,
finding no answers I reach for the gate.
Getting nowhere from somewhere Ive been,
It shows in the motions and actions Ive taken.
Lost and alone still a boy, not a man,
someone so lost its hard to fathom.
Prayer was a waste it has shown me a path,
Ive followed it gladly to forget the past.
Its helped for a while has helped me to grow,
but back there and then the seed was sown.
Running away was the best thing to do,
fix yourselves problems, its all on you.
The road ahead, will twist and will turn,
lost in the middle its hard to return.
Just want to go back, fix what Ive done.
erase all thats happened the thing Ive become.
Let me forget what was made way back then,
move on to the present how long has it been.
Looking back to remember the happiness there,
I truly cant find it, just pain and regret.
You now might get it the reason I write,
feeling sorry for doing stupid things in my life.
Things that will never be forgiven of me,
hiding behind a curtain a sheet of dreams.
I wish I could do it forget what was done,
it hurts that deep down that I want to return.
My life would be taken away pretty quick,
if I owned up to anything that it hurts to remit.
So here is the problem its hard to receive,
but my life is a lie to you and to me.
To go back right now would destroy what Ive made,
once broken its fragments will never remain.
It will be nothing, not a thing just the now,
gone forever never to be found.
So hiding Ill keep them the secrets Ive kept,
live the lie Ive been living to never forget.
Hating myself for what I have done,
Ill never get over the memories the pain they bring on.
Such ugliness lies beneath what you see,
leaving their marks indistinctive and mean.
Dont forget the future because youre sure to forget,
that nothing can change the things I regret.
Remember my words hopefully one day youll see,
that nothing is ever clear to be seen.
If one day you see me passing you by,
youll never be able to tell its a lie.
Because Im hidden away from the truth,
watch out for me, I might be the guy in the suit.
Just passing you by on the street of your town,
never betraying the person Ive found.
So Ill keep building it up this lie,
just to prove that sometimes the light loses sight.
Hopefully something will help me to see,
I want a way out for you and for me.
Something that leaves me at where I am now,
but helps fix the problems I need to renounce.
One day I hope that Ill find the path,
straighter than ever and where its the best.
Well, for now Ill stay where i've has been,
hiding and sneaking behind this mask.
