In 7 years I'll shed this skin that was exposed
It will fall off me as I walk, jog, run from my memories
I'll go so fast that it will burn off me
Yes it was show the scars that lay under it
But they will be new scars one I create for myself
None from the past that lay waste to my 7 year old skin
I think I'll travel around the world going places that mean nothing to me
Meeting people that might mean everything
Maybe I'll get lucky
Maybe I won't
Perhaps I'll find the rubble of my torn off skin
I'll place them like trophies on my shelves
Always a reminder
Always showing
Always every 7 years
