Travelling to the places I would rather never go
Is often unintentional, but soon, I find I’m there
Trying to retrace my steps to see where I’d forgotten
The places I was going ‘til I found that I was there
Usually, the places that I never want to go to
Seem to be the places that I end up every time
Focusing on everything I’d rather not pay mind to
Paying with my peace of mind in pieces at a time
Sometimes, my intentions are to focus on those places
Travelling the pain to different places, different times
The difference and the timing between usually and sometimes
Depends on what I’m feeling when I’m feeling out of rhyme
Occasionally, I find that I can’t find just where I’m going
Forgetting to forget, as I recall the worst in all
Instead of what I’ve overcome, for despite it all, I’m still here standing
And sometimes…any memory’s better than no memory at all
