Bright grass kisses the sun and broken marble shys Teasing the past to summon old cries Where summer dies and stars no longer seen Appearing in mud and everything unclean Simple waves tease rocky shores To wash away, all the world ignores Weathered seams and broken dreams Old Polaroids fade to nothing under sharp sun beams This is the story that no parent told These are the truths that freeze the soul cold Cherish the memories, memorize what they show Live in the moment, and let the rest go

Past
Bright grass kisses the sun and broken marble shys Teasing the past to summon old cries Where summer dies and stars no longer seen Appearing in mud and everything unclean Simple waves tease rocky shores To wash away, all the world ignores Weathered seams and broken dreams Old Polaroids fade to nothing under sharp sun beams This is the story that no parent told These are the truths that freeze the soul cold Cherish the memories, memorize what they show Live in the moment, and let the rest go
