Memories
When you left me all my heart could
do was die
You left it battered, bloodied, broken
to flatline
And when it came out of the grave re-
born so small
Not knowing how to walk it had to
learn to crawl
And I know you aren’t there
And I know you don’t care
And I know that you could be living anywhere
When our lives diverged we went down
different paths
Under a yellow wood it was the
aftermath
And when you took the path that was so
trampled down
You left me on one where I couldn’t
see the ground
But I know you aren’t there
And I know you don’t care
And I know that you could be loving anywhere
But I keep your photo in the back side of the frame
In case in the future you come back and you have changed
Oh could I still love you after you’ve put me through all this pain
Or is it just the memories
that I can’t throw away.
The sun and moon have come and gone so
many times
I can’t even recall the color
of your eyes
You stay a shadow on the wall in-
side my cave
My heart can only see 2D
reality
And I know you aren’t there
And I know you don’t care
And I know that you could be lingering anywhere
But I keep your photo in the back side of the frame
In case in the future you come back and you have changed
Oh could I still love you after you’ve put me through all this pain
Or is it just the memories
that I can’t throw away.
And after I ensured my house was changed
After you poured bleach right down my drain
I can’t get you from inside my brain
But I know you aren’t there
And I know you don’t care
And I know that you could loathe me anywhere
But I keep your photo in the back side of the frame
In case in the future you come back and you have changed
Oh could I still love you after you’ve put me through all this pain
Or is it just the memories
that I can’t throw away.
Or is it just the memories…
that I can’t throw away.
