It Had to Go

 I've seen the battle of evermore

It came from the walls and floor

I kept thinking I don't want to see or hear this anymore

I was fogged I was confused

Days were long of nightmares of home

Staying away was easy, because of the peace I felt

Like a war, do you go to the fight or pull back to safety

To get away from it all

The nightmares of reality

I pushed it down, so far down that it couldn't control me anymore

I've seen things that most adults couldn't handle or want to see

Never talk of it, just push it away or push it deeper into my soul

It was to the point I had to forgive; I had to let go

Release me from hell, my life I wanted back

It's not the blood that bleeds, it's the memories that flow

Do you put them in a barrel to burn, let the ashes blow away

It's better than what I had, no way could I carry that today...
