Pebbles of light in shades of grey
dissolve before my eyes
Darkness clings around my soul,
as the last light fades and dies
It’s dark, so dark, that for a while
I think that I have gone blind
Then memories from so long ago
Start whispering in my mind
‘Do you recall the time when you
were judged before your peers
or when you needlessly caused
so many people to shed tears?’
Do you remember a young boy
who always had a point of view
You surely should remember
for that young boy was you’
I tell the whispers to go away
and leave my poor head alone
Why do they remind me of things
For which I can never atone?
Just as I think they’ve gone away
no longer to haunt my brain
Out from a corner of my mind
the whispering starts again
‘You remember that day at school
of humiliation and shame?
and how you kept your silence
to let another take the blame
Remember the time you refused
to help out your truest friend
in his greatest hour of need
with his honour to defend?’
I beg the whispers to stop
And let me drift off into sleep
But they refuse to go away
As the dawn begins to creep
‘Remember how you turned away
as the tears ran down his face,
the bitterness he must have felt
when you offered him no solace?
Remember how he was punished
as you watched without remorse
You could have told the honest truth
but you never owned up of course
You were supposed to be his friend
yet when he looked you in the eye
Remember how you did nothing
As you stood and watched him die?’
If that headset works, the cable connecting the Turtle Beach
Ear Power X41 headset to the controller could should be changed.
