Everywhere it follows you,
Echoes of the words you said,
The conversations you rue,
Which keep rumbling in your head.

Everywhere it follows you,
The warmth of the words you hear,
Giving courage to see through,
Most of life's troubles and fear.

Everywhere it follows you,
The silence that you have kept,
The fear stopped you to be true,
And in dark guilt you have wept.

Everywhere it follows you,
What you said, what you did not,
It doesn't matter what you do,
In those echoes you are caught.
