Guilt hangs over me like a dark cloud.

Although it's silent, it seems so loud.

Can everyone see it, the could that hangs low?

Is the feeling of guilt showing, does everyone know?

Maybe if I stay still the cloud will disappear.

But I still hear my guilty conscience, whisper in my ear.

Can't you see the gloom that screams while I morn.

I am still guilty about the hearts that I've torn.

But know one will know it if I don't say.

I just want to be alone, can the world just go away?!

I've never felt angrier with myself than now.

So here's my final words before I take my bow.

The show is over and it's time for me to go.

I lied to all of you, and yet you still don't know.

This is why the cloud of guilt follows me around.

Because the words for my apology weren't ever found.

And now I say goodbye silently to you all.

You won't see me tomorrow, when all the brown leaves fall.

The world is best without me and my cloud of guilt.

Please burn down the bridges of sorrow that I built.

I've done so much damage in my time here on earth.

But it's ending with my death, because it started with my birth.

Know one will cry at the loss of my life.

Because I stabbed you with my lies, as sharp as a knife.

I was a horrible person, but aren't we all?

One day all our shows will end with our final curtain call.

We will leave behind the guilt of our dirty youth.

At least we're not alone, because no one  tells the truth.
