Keep or Toss

Going through the things in my room
I come across memories of a different time
A different life
One where you and I were friends
One where I thought that would always be true
A different time
A different life
Happiness ruled my life
Now the darkness reigns supreme
And it seems it will always be that way
I reread the old letters
Remembering the feelings of that time
I ask myself keep or toss
Keep the memories of a happier time
Of a happier life
One where you and I were friends
One when I thought that would always be true
A different time
A different life
Would it be better to toss out the old memories
The letters written
The presents given
Everything that makes me think of you
Everything that reminds me of the happier times
Where you and I were friends
When I thought that we would always be

Stay

I tried to push you away
Even though I really needed you to stay
I didn't believe that you would
I punished you for someone else's crime
Now you're gone
And there's no one to blame but me

Suffocation

I try to climb out
but the weight is pulling me down
and then I'm falling
falling in the darkness
falling in the darkness again
the weight of the emptiness is weighing me down
I can't see
I can't breathe
and I'm falling in the darkness
falling in the darkness again
there is no end in sight
when will this be over
it is like a vacuum
sucking all the life from me
and then I'm falling in the darkness
falling in the darkness
falling in the darkness again

Distance

Do you feel it?
Do you feel it?
We're growing apart.
The distance between us grows larger every day.
Can you see it?
Can you see it?
The distance has become a visable thing.
I watch you move further and further away.
Can you hear it?
Can you hear it?
The sound of us drifting away.
The distance is over taking us.
I thought we'd be forever.
I thought nothing could get in our way.
But it's here.
It's pushing us further apart everyday.
We are going our own seperate ways.
Can you feel it?
Do you feel us slipping away?

If I left

Do you still need me?
Would it bother you if I left?
I don't seem to be a part of your life anymore.
You've moved on.
Do you remember me at all?
Did I touch your life like you touched mine?
Or am I just a vague memory to you?
A ghost of the past on the fringes of your mind
Easy to ignore
Is it easy for you to forget
Would you even notice if I left?
