24 Years Lyrics - Caliban

Tell me! 

How will I ever forget this 

24 years of isolation? 

24 years of black. 

I will never forget this 

24 years of separation 

24 years of pain? 

I will never forget this 

24 years of ignorance 

24 years of hate. 

How will I ever forget? 

Raped and used with my own blood 

You stole my life and dreams. 

You are my darkest fear. 

I will never be the same 

I will never smile again 

You brought the darkness into my life 

You taught me how to cry. 

Why? 

Why? 

My inner struggle will just end when I 

Take my last breath 

And I will see you suffer 

Until you close your eyes. 

I'm just an empty shell. 

I will never forget this 

24 years of trepidation 

24 years of lies 

How will I ever forget? 

You stole my innocence 

And gave me living death. 

Just an empty shell 

I'm just an empty shell. 

SHELL! 

My inner struggle will just end when I 

Take my last breath 

And I will see you suffer 

Until you close your eyes. 

I will never be the same 

I will never smile again 

You brought the darkness into my life 

You taught me how to cry. 

Why? 

Why?
