Backlash Songtext
von MathematicPony

Hearts stay broken
Wounds won′t mend
My neglect
Lost my only friend
And shadows cast
I thought wouldn't last
But I realized at the end

That the time I spent
Without you here was worthless
Oh, if I just tried to face my fears
Maybe this would hurt less


But now for a thousand years
I′ll be dealing with results of my actions
My actions
If I just looked beyond myself
I'd avoid all of this backlash
This backlash
If I just tried once in my life
To help you through the nightmare
The nightmare
Maybe I'd still hear your laugh
Maybe I′d avoid this backlash
This backlash

Dark times here
I hope you′ll be back soon
I can barely stand to see the moon
Outward peace is what my people see
But my throne is my own tomb

'Cause the time I spent
Without you here was worthless
Oh, if I just tried to face my fears
Maybe this would hurt less


But now for a thousand years
I′ll be dealing with results of my actions
My actions
If I just looked beyond myself
I'd avoid all of this backlash
This backlash
If I just tried once in my life
To help you through the nightmare
The nightmare
Maybe I′d still hear your laugh
Maybe I'd avoid this backlash
This backlash

My only hope
Rests in finding someone
To pick me up where I fell down
Because through the smoke
She′ll unite the ones we need
For you to be free from
Nightmare's crown

But now for a thousand years
I'll be dealing with results of my actions
My actions
If I just looked beyond myself
I′d avoid all of this backlash
This backlash
If I just tried once in my life
To help you through the nightmare
The nightmare
Maybe I′d still hear your laugh
Maybe I'd avoid this backlash
This backlash
