You remind me of myself Broken hearted and hoping Looking for someone to love Wishing that I could go back in time To figure out what went wrong Trying to fill the holes in my heart With laughter, hatred, even cement Anything that will hurt, to remind me that I feel Anything that will remind me that pain is real
You remind me of her Staring into the open field as the stars come out Pouring out her every emotion Wanting me to help her, feel more like herself To help her find her way in life Down the broken path that she had chosen That took her so far away, hours- even days When she drove away, the misted look in her eye Told me that I had failed, I couldn't help her survive
You remind me of him We did everything in our power not to give in Distanced ourselves from eachother, trying to cut the ties Living seperate lives and falling in love with other people All because the trust was uneasy, unsure The way he looked away when I looked him in the eye Whenver I said goodbye, because he hated those words His hands trembling as he took a chance to live on his own Calling me to remind me, that I wasn't alone
You remind me of them The distant people from my past Good and bad, happy and sad- cliche as that is, you do You read my every movement, my every word Like I'm some book that needs to be figured out Or maybe you think you've already got me down You overthink my simple words, and underthink my sentences My emotions seeping out like blood I'm not the person you think I am, I'm everything but that
You remind me of me You remind me of her You remind me of them You remind me of everyone but yourself these days
I don't know if it's me- or if it happens to be you But everytime you move, I see someone else Maybe I'm hallucinating; Or maybe I'm just going crazy But if I told that I thought you were being you I'd be lying- but I'll be longing for the day You keep your own identity, and I'll be whispering
