Why does it still mean something after so much time?
It’s not like you sit somewhere far away still thinking of me
But there are just so many reminders everywhere
Little flashes of what used to be or could have been
And I curse myself for not being able to keep it straight
If I had kept my big mouth shut who knows where I would be
Too much idle time and too many empty thoughts
Allowing me to dwell on something long best forgotten
But how could I forget your or the impact that you had?
You were the one that cut right through the darkness
Through you the fog was lifted from my eyes
And when I became too much for you to handle
It was as if the light bulb burst somewhere amid the clouds
Who knew that I could screw it up just though caring too much?
By not being able to pull back all the way as asked
I doomed myself to lose what meant the most to me
And still sit here trying to find the meaning in it all
Over my own head in all this better left behind
Feelings better left forgotten, but I can’t move on
