I think of you in the silence
I think of you in the dark
I think of you when I’m alone
I think of you when it’s hard
I think of you when I close my eyes
and when I drift to sleep
I think of you in the skies
and when it’s time to grieve
I think of you in every flower
and when I sit outside,
I think of you in every rain shower
and when the clouds have cried
I think of you when I’m wide awake
and when the night won’t come
I think of you with every ache
and when the pain has turned to numb

Do the memories ever really go away?
Do they just go dormant and then replay?
I cut and smoked and drank to numb the pain
only to wake up and feel the same
now I avoid the mirrors and the camera screens
If I don’t look then I won’t be seen
I pretend my life is a movie scene
Can you yell “cut” so I can wipe the slate clean?
I’m ashamed of my body and the hate it’s consumed
But in my mind there’s only room for two
I can take the hurt and everything I’ve been through
But please don’t tell me I’ll lose you too
I’m in love and I’m finally free,
but my mind still plays tricks on me
I can’t be happy if I’m not who I want to be
I think I’m trapped in a world I wasn’t meant to see
One step forward and two steps back
Can I ever be satisfied with what I have?
I want to live in the moment but the moments aren’t enough
to erase the days that came before and get back what I lost
