Who is that, looking so scared?
Peeping through my window pane
It's just a perception
Of my youthful reflection
Wary of my ego and the past
Looking for me out in the dark
All of my sins have come together
Outside my door
Holding hands in a circle
Demanding from me
Reasons for my actions
Sipping on some wine
In this bright moonlit night
Tumbling and tossing to the ground
My diminutive reflection is confined
I know it all so well
Their reasons for creating this hell
They are asking me to pay
For the moments of my past
With the remainder of my days
They keep me up all night
So I sleep through the day light
I know that I might not ever rest
I sit and I deplete
All through the night
Trying to mend the time
I know I cannot rewind
This is how I must repay
For those past distant days
