When i walk away
All the darkness stays
Haven’t felt awake for a long time
And i feel the shame
Washing over me
As i kneel and pray
Don’t be afraid
It was a mistake
No one saw a thing
It was all a dream
But i can’t shake the feeling that
The devil’s watching me
Swerving lanes in this pouring rain
One too many shots that i overdrank
Hoping i can make it safe
This state mind i can’t explain
So i take a backroad, dimly lit
Won’t get caught by police and sh#t
But everything changed in the blink of an eye
What the f#ck did i hit
Foot on the brake as my mind goes blank
Heartbеat louder than the outside rain
As i watch it wash away thе blood stains
Maybe i just hallucinated
Step outside but i see it clear
Broken, bloodied, but breathing air
Hoping that i help him but
I stand frozen here in fear
What do i do, there’s no one else here
I panic and see that no cameras are near
I flee to my car, so guilty but scared
I cannot get caught, i say quick prayer
Look at the rearview as i leave the scene
He fades to the dark, i no longer see him
But right as try to breath sigh of relief
I feel the chills like he’s been following me
Nah, what can i do
If i turn myself in, then my life is through
I get that it’s sad that the man had to die
A life is a life and i know that ain’t right
But he was just homeless, no kids and no wife
While i got my sights on a future that’s bright
I gotta fight to erase this mistake
This just the guilt that i’ll take to my grave
And a man was killed in a hit and run collision
Early this morning near *** road and *** avenue
According to *** police
They arrived to the scene around 1 am
Where they found an adult male
In the roadway with some serious injuries
Now despite life-saving reports
The victim died there at the scene
Police say the driver took off
Before officers arrived
Don’t be afraid
It was a mistake
No one saw a thing
It was all a dream
But i can’t shake the feeling that
The devil’s watching me
