Yesterday's pain
Will haunt me no longer
I will rise above it
No tears shall fall today
I am getting a grip

Yesterday's pain
Is in the past
Time to let go
Clearing my mind
Clearing my soul

Yesterday's pain
Cannot be true on this day
I have forgotten it all
I won't be brought down again
For today is a new day

Yesterday's pain
Is not today's misery
I'm breaking free of this cage
Breaking these chains that hold me
Killing the pain upon me

It's about letting go of painful things that happened in the past and finally realizing that it's over. Hope you enjoy it.
