Memories Haunt Me
When I used to be happy
When the times were good

I still have the pictures
The boy in them looks like me
It used to be me

But not anymore
I lost the relationship
I screwed it all up

They don't talk to me
No longer care about me
Gone without a trace

Now I'm stuck with them
All the happy memories
We made together

Where did that girl go
The one who took everything
I have nothing now

I barley knew her
I can scarcely remember her
She ran far away

Leaving me behind
The spark in my eyes is gone
No saturation

Her face is a blur
Her eyes void and colorless
Her hands cold and void

They once comforted
And the lips reassured me
And the teeth bit me

At least, they did once
That was a long time ago
Feelings don't get old

I want to let go
I want to tell her goodbye
Memories Linger

Innocence is Gone I can't say that I don't know
I know lots of things

But one thing stands out
What I'm missing out on
And what he enjoys

He knows what it's like
She will meet all of his needs
Everything he wants

Once she cared for me
It was so immaculate
All my needs and wants

She has forgotten
I have not

Gone gone gone gone gone
Everyone that I have loved
I drive them away

Memories haunt me
The person that I once was
And who was with me

I miss them dearly
But they're never coming back
I lost them for good

I Know it's Over
I can see that it's all gone
She took it from me

I saw her again
She came to me late last night
Finally I knew

She said why she left
I rejoiced hearing the news
I could now move forward

But then I woke up
And I learned it wasn't real
And my joy was gone

She took all of it
She took everything from me
Leaving me behind

Take a chance
You know you want to
Even though she won't come back
You will know you tried
You reached out

She did not
Driving by her house
There's the ghost of memories
Shock of better times
When we loved

When she loved
Now I'm on my own
I'm stranded without my love
She could never be
She has worth

She's flawless
She's done nothing wrong
I can't say a single thing
because I don't know
because she left
Memories stay pure
The faults and cracks forgotten What's left is perfect
She is perfect
At least to me
Im my memory
