people forget the memories
that mean the most to you
they don't even remember the times you spent together
sometimes the ones you love the most leave
they come back but you never speak again
you're a new independent person
when they have to leave
fresh off the presses
new piece of award- winning art
latest piece of fashion
the new kid on the block
sometimes demons escape from the deepest of your soul
because no one was there to contain them
you've been alone for awhile
lost all of your power
making new friends
but not letting your real self shine through
because of the past
creeps up silently in your mind
like a cat sneaking on its prey
if they ever come back
its not the same as it was
they're proud and have forgotten you
silly thoughts and low self esteem
you which you could be happy
but you're coming apart at the seam
from the anxiety that leaves you angry
and no matter how much you want to stay strong
but the fun has no longer last
and you can't hold on, not even until the end of this song
because even though the times haven't past
the hopelessness of every trusting again
and it goes down with your ex-friends
if you take me to your grave
and never look at me through a camera lens
maybe i'll be brave
and never mistrust again
