A Thousand Times Committed

blame it all, on mistake, apologies don't

change the motives under; banished

from, memories, temptation lines weak

when true colors show; that is why,

it burns, like guilt does when we

compromise the things we hold close

set off betrayal's stage, if that's

what you desire, it's war to be waged,

right in the public eye, you ask for

redemption, and masses will follow

trapped inside, a prison, manifested

by your worst self creation, looking

back, do you, see a fault with turning

your back on ally for her

set off betrayal's stage, if that's

what you desire, it's war to be waged,

right in the public eye, you ask for

redemption, and masses will follow

your penance may be served in full

but there is still a lesson to be learnt

from this, a moral standard to be set, a

lesson you will never carry with you,

and punish everyone around you,

mutiny forgives but not forgets as

long as people never change

set off betrayal's stage, if that's

what you desire, it's war to be waged,

right in the public eye, you ask for

redemption, and masses will follow
