You are my sun bright
You are the daylight
Hiding the shadows of my mind

The memories that flew away came back again
Bringing back much heart pain
So why does it rain,
It feels just the same
As if I'll be on my own-
Without you

So I'm thinkin' about the memories through this song,
It helps me forget about everything that went wrong

Ecstatic moments feel painful now;
Even all the memories, even the longing,
Gets back to me now

I just looked at you, turned around and cried,
I wanted to find a place where I could hide

7th grade, she told me,
"I don't want to live,"
I can't take it as a joke.
The fear of goodbyes.

8th grade, a friend of a friend,
It could've been him,
The way her face contorted
As she said goodbye.

I lost sleep, just to talk.
Would it be the end,
If I left my broken friends?
I lost sleep, for them.

In 9th grade, he told me,
I made him say it,
"I will see you tomorrow."
I said that nightly.

A promise. It meant hope.
The worst days' nights,
I'd say it again, with love.
It was a promise.

Words are everything here,
One mistake, it's over.
I may not hear his voice again
If I don't sway him.

Pressure, is this love now?
I'm so scared, always.
He came first, after all this.
I had to leave him.

Feeling selfish, alone,
I had to leave him.
Now getting close, major fear,
Terminal goodbyes.

I'll love you, for a while,
I might not get close,
It's overwhelming, dear god,
The fear of goodbyes.
