The clock is ticking
And taking my time away.
There are no promises that can make it stop;
The words, useless.
Reminiscing won't make the future like the past
Nostalgia is just a mind mischief.

Nonetheless, memories keep us alive.
They never fade.

Living an unfulfilled life,
The only escape that keeps me breathing is the thought of repetition.
Nothing will bring that summer back.
The years will keep passing me through.  
And no matter what,
I'll still miss you.

I've come to the conclusion
that this was nothing but an illusion.
I was stuck on an idea of you
an idea that looked so purely true.

Reality decided to silence my dream
reality turned this fire into smoke
and now there's nothing left
where we once were.

They loved each other so deeply,
They never resurfaced

So this is what it feels to learn something everyday
And the only reason I'm learning is because you're away
What am I saying...?
I didn't even ask you to stay.

I am learning how to bear with mixed up feelings
Somehow I miss you
And somehow I wish you missed me too
But you wouldn't miss me as fiercely
As I miss you.

I am learning how I can't force myself to feel
What I know isn't real.

And it's okay.
I mean...
She must have done something better.
You must love coming home to her smile.
And maybe you found something in her eyes
That you lost in mine.

you know those demons your religious grandmother warned you about?
they live inside everyone around you.

whenever someone loses hope
whenever someone loses themselves
that's how their demons work.

they haunt their every dream
they live inside their nightmares
and it's not a movie for them.

it's the darkness that takes over the light
whenever someone finds nothing else to fight for
when people become more fearful than human.

and you know those demons that you've been warned about?
they live inside you too.

You're not you anymore.
Or at least the you I knew.
And I knew you pretty well
For someone you say didn't care.

And don't give me that *******
That people don't change
Because if you hadn't changed
I wouldn't have been alone on a friday night.

I know I think about you more than I should
And maybe more than you do
And sometimes I get lost and hope to never come back
Because I find in you everything I lack.
It might be selfish to want you
But I don't mind if I do.

Don't worry love
You'll find someone better.
