I pulled out my drawer
and it was full of our memories
My heart was still beating
Its beating for you
And everything became still
I felt your shattering words
New memories became history
These movies became photos
And our love became a distant past
Oh why won't it last
Why won't it last
And I hear my waves come crashing

It was my fault this time
I pushed you away with my words
I've never felt love like yours
So true and refined
Like an old bottle of wine
And now my heart feels like
an unfinished painting
I can't keep on waiting
for this love to come back
So I'll close my drawer
Sealing it up
Boarding it up
Closing it up
I feel my heart break

And now I can't feel you
And now I can't see you
I'll clench my sturdy fist
Squeezing away the pain
Of loss and insanity
Quietness, and tranquillity
Of my heart
Of my heart
It's the start
Of something that is more
Open and close the door
Of my heart
Of my heart
I still miss you

I've changed, I've changed
And my heart, my heart
Is in flames, in flames
Come back, my love
I've changed, I'm the same
I won't lie any more
I won't cry any more
I can't die any more
Don't know why any more
I've gone and lost my way
I dont know what to say
Im lost.


I still feel your lips
Pressing against mine
And I can still feel our hearts
Tightly intertwined,
These wounds are still bleeding,
They will heal in time...
And even though I feel. like this
I'll be fine, I'll be fine
And this time, this time
My heart is heavy and
my knees are weak
And the more of this I speak of
The more it just hurts
So that's just proof
I'll be fine.
With your heart
In mine
