Memento

Time is racing, going so fast
Tomorrow is here, so saw the seer
Time erasing, showing no past
Don't follow fear, love the last

His tattooed memories were all that he had
Their evil re-introductions so cheap and sad
That bastard omnipresent, he sleyed his wife
He feigned an air of pleasance, he faded life

Revenge is sweet, they said in times before
In time, defeat will settle all the score
The messages he sent himself in time reveal
The man before him is the man that he must kill

No recollection of the man whose blood is on his hands
Sense of completion, so he ran through mud and forest lands
Away from what?
For time won't tell the past as it was spent
Oh, without time you only have a memento
Oh, without time you only have a memento
Oh, without time you only have a memento...
