Look-Back Prayer

Silence crawling through your steps at night. Lights go out, you fade from sight. The road remembers more than you, And something's trailing, it won't let you through. Cold hands crawling up your spine like you know You crossed a line. Every step drags weight you hide, And something walks right by your side. It's getting closer, feel it now. The dark is reaching out somehow. It's breathing right behind your back. Look back. The dark remembers what you did. Look back. You can't outrun the things you hid. Windows black but something sees Every trace you tried to leave. The further that you try to run, The more you fear what you've become. Don't slow down, don't lose pace. It already knows your face. You can run, but you can't break that track. Look back. The dark remembers what you did. Look back. You can't outrun the things you hid. No name, no face, no sound. Still, it's always hanging around. What you took was never yours. Now it's knocking at your door. Look back. Look back. You feel it every step you take. You know it's every move you make. It's right behind your back. Look back. Don't run. Don't hide. It already knows Inside. Look back. Look back. Look back.
