Someday I will be
Nothing but a memory
Just a story to be told
An old picture to behold

Those who remember me
Will keep my presence alive
Tortured by me, who's
Nothing but a memory

I know it's irrelevant
But I cannot bare the thought
Of being the cause of their pain
My memory will bring nothing but
Heartache

I would rather dissolve
Waste away
As the hands of time
Drift me away

I would rather pass on
Than weigh the hearts of those I love
Don't let me become a memory

Be happy
Cherish your life, in peace
What's gone is gone
And in time, you'll move on
Although the pain clings in desperation
It will someday release it's hold
Even if the rain is bitter and cold
The sun will shine again

Please don't let me be
Just another memory
