I've spun my memories into a cage and,

I am sorry, I am not a good person
And I could never make myself care.


Now I am trapped in nostalgia
Looking out through these brittle bars,

I remember the day we met
And we never talked again that year,
You spent all that time wishing I would see you


But it’s hard to see with these tears
Forming glass on my eyes.

And one day I tripped
Right into your arms, I brought you happiness.


In a way it burns my sight
Since the rooms are too dark
For my eyes to see

You were more beautiful then I knew,
And I left.


Outside my head,
The world became fearful
Or I became afraid

Wilfully walking out,
On friendship, love,


And now I wish I had been strong enough,

*I was frightened to never be alone.
