All the empty space between these walls
Filled with secrets I cant escape from
I have lost the person I used to be.

I fill all these empty rooms with self doubt
I tried to lock it all in
The rooms are filled, they leak at the seams

The more I try to run, the more I try to hide
The more I get lost inside my own mind
Running away from you has me trapped inside.

I see you there with her and the rooms inside my mind
burst open and flood every inch
I become that lost girl I never wanted to be.

I am lost inside the deep dark parts of my mind
I feel like a child walking at night
Scared of what I might find if I creep around the corner just to far.

Afraid that around the corner I might find the memories
that I try so hard to hide  
The memories of you and I

I loved you so much I almost wish I never met you
I almost wish I could erase the memories that we made
but a small part of me wants to hold on to the times we had

I want to hold on to the way you made me feel
to hold tight to the way you used to make me laugh
the way you looked at me like you had stars in your eyes

The day you left I cried
Every time I see you that memory floods my mind
my heart shattered that day when it hit the ground

The day you walked away I changed
I built walls so high
I decided the only way to protect my feelings was to not have them

I figured it would stop my heart from breaking every time I saw you
To bad those walls only shut everyone else out
but with you it kept you locked inside

I feel as though I cant escape that feeling
I feel as though this lost girl shall remain inside
Scared to move on, scared to forget

Scared that she might never feel the same way she did
the way she felt with you
Maybe that Lost Girl is who I was always meant to be
