Stare Away

Can I turn my head away and run?
Can I stare away from this, from you, from us?
Merciless time went by; slow as death and cold as snow
Can I stare the other way and run?
Minds never forget, they just stare the other way and play dumb

Mouths sewn by stitches of silence
Darn my memory, can I?
Eyes blinded by veils of forgetfulness
Blind my mind, can you?

I bound myself to resist the siren song
Only to find out that the sirens lie within me
I close my eyes and fired at the past
Only to see I was shooting at nowhere

I turned my head away and ran
I stare away from this, from you, from us
Merciless time goes by; just don’t beckon at me
I stare the other way and run
I’ll never forget, just don’t call my name no more
