I buried the pain deep inside
I locked away the memories
I thought I could escape the past
I thought I could be free
But then one day it all came back
The flashbacks and the nightmares
The voices and the faces
The guilt and the despair
I couldn't cope with the truth
I couldn't face the reality
I felt like I was drowning
I felt like I was trapped
Now I don't know what to do
Now I don't know who to trust
Now I don't know how to heal
Now I don't know how to live.
