Verse
Silent scorn... You've taken it out on the ones you adore.
Inside rage... They've left you before but they'll come back again.
They'll pray for you with all their love...
But this time your indifference just can't be excused.
Forced amends... Well it's something you'll die with but it goes on for them.
Chorus
