I must stop living within the feeling of this lie That's why I'm here, to finally say Goodbye. The lie: I am still in love with you Deep down I know... that simply isn't true Yes, I think about you every single day... But you only exist in my mind, that's where you live, it's where you stay Even further, it really isn't "you" that lives within me A truth sometimes I force myself not to see For you see, it can't be you that my emotions adore, It has been over two years... I don't know "you" anymore Although the you is so real in my head, I understand the you I loved is long gone ... dead. Therefore I can't love you Lindsey Because "you" only exist in my head, as a memory To be honest, I think I'm subconsciously afraid... Giving you up means to become un-made You are but just a memory A memory that does not define me Accepting this is the only way I can be free

Free From the Love of A Memory
