Estevan

(song and lyrics by Conrad)

Once there was a time when I was too naive,

But that was all changed when you set your eyes on me.

You claimed you were a friend--a harmless little touch,

But then my life shattered when that touch was too much.

I don't know when I will start to feel again.

The heart inside of me, in pain.

Oh, my memories they burn slowly in my mind.

It's burning what I have away.

I wrestle with my thoughts becoming more defiled.

For now, there is hate where a love used to reside.

Now I cannot find the strength to lift my head.

Where there was once honor lies depravity instead.

One day, it will shine again.

This cloud will be no longer.

When that day comes, I'll know why,

Because I've been made stronger.

I'm facing what's ahead by what is in my past.

A terrible chapter for the writer to have grasped.

The trials that seem so hard are hard to comprehend.

I face my life, keeping a' one eye on the end.
