Past
The past is a term used to indicate the totality of events which occurred before a given point in time. The past is contrasted with and defined by the present and the future. The concept of the past is derived from the linear fashion in which human observers experience time, and is accessed through memory and recollection. In addition, human beings have recorded the past since the advent of written language.
The past is the object of such fields as history, memory, flashback, archaeology, archaeoastronomy, chronology, geology, historical geology, historical linguistics, law, ontology, paleontology, paleobotany, paleoethnobotany, palaeogeography, paleoclimatology, and cosmology.

The Past (song)
"The Past" is the second single from the Chapter VII: Hope and Sorrow album produced by the American heavy metal band Sevendust. This power ballad, with lead vocals from Lajon Witherspoon and featuring guest vocals by lead vocalist of the band Daughtry, Chris Daughtry, is a bit of a departure for the band, falling more into the post-grunge category than what fans have come to expect from Sevendust. "Sorrow", another song found on Chapter VII: Hope and Sorrow, is similar in tone and also contains guest vocals, this time by Myles Kennedy. Sevendust has not yet created a music video for "The Past".
Controversy
Florida TV station WFTV-Channel 9 reported that Sevendust's song "The Past" was played repeatedly by Casey Anthony, who has been charged with first-degree murder in the disappearance of her daughter, Caylee while she was out on bond. The track carries this lyric: "Beneath the water that's falling from my eyes, Lays a soul I've left behind." The song was also apparently a topic of discussion on "Nancy Grace", a nightly current affairs show on CNN's Headline News hosted by Nancy Ann Grace, an American legal commentator, television host, and former prosecutor.
The Drive
A reason is all I need to try and stop letting myself leave and say goodnight.
A need to know where this leads is weighing down on me I can't breath.
I'm sick of the same old conversations winding up with these old frustrations.
Lets take the time to to see. If we can believe all the fine points made;
If we can acheive anything today; If we can stand up to the test of time;
If we can get down to the bottom line-are we as one?
I thought about all the things you've said and done as times gone by.
I wanted to make you see how much you are few and far between
And sleep by your side and not say goodbye.
The taste of a sweet life.
The sound of the sea.
The reason to stay here's not dying in me.
So can we move onwards and upwards not back down this beaten tarck?
Why did this argument happen anyway!
If this small mismatch can destroy our dreams.
If this tiny hole swallows anything at all.
If he can be happy then why can't I?
It's not all that easy because I've tried.
