Wash Away Those Years by Creed

I'm not sure how I found this song... but the words express the process I am going through very well. I've tried so many times to tell someone what happened, but I whispered so softly, no one could hear. So I just carried on... closed my eyes and imagined everything was alright.

Now, my anger is violent... and I'm trying to beat the silence. I am not alone. There are so many others who have been through what I am going through and come out. There are so many people who love me who are fighting with me. I have angels on both sides of the veil helping me find my way.

And then, I will imagine everything is alright, and it will become alright. I will be able to imagine the life I was meant to have. I won't hide the tears... they will wash away the pain from the years past.

"Wash Away Those Years"
She came calling
One early morning
She showed her crown of thorns
She whispered softly
To tell a story
About how she had been wronged
As she lay lifeless
He stole her innocence
And this is how she carried on
This is how she carried on

Well I guess she closed her eyes
And just imagined everything's alright
But she could not hide her tears
'Cause they were sent to wash away those years
They were sent to wash away those years

My anger's violent
But still I'm silent
When tragedy strikes at home
I know this decadence Is shared by millions
Remember you're not alone
Remember you're not alone

Well if you just close your eyes
And just imagine everything's alright
But do not hide your tears
'Cause they were sent to wash away those years
Well if you just close your eyes
And just imagine everything's alright
But do not hide your tears
'Cause they were sent to wash away those years
They were sent to wash away those years
Maybe we can wash away those years

For we have crossed many oceans
And we labor in between
In life there are many quotients
And I hope I find the mean
the mean, the mean

Well if you just close your eyes
And just imagine everything's alright
But do not hide your tears
'Cause they were sent to wash away those years
Well if you just close your eyes
And just imagine everything's alright
But do not hide your tears
'Cause they were sent to wash away those years
Maybe we can wash away those years
I hope that you can wash away those years
