Drive Back

How many times I’ve tried to hang in,
In vain I spread myself too thin.
You’re deep within my head,
There’s no moving forward.
I give in.
The strain inside me is too much to handle.
And I won’t forget
Your solemn words like distant echoes in my head.
Put my guard up,
Drive back to when I was all right.
I wish I could forget just as fast as you did.
Try to stay gone,
Despite the weight that makes me feel so low,
Uncertain of the soil that I tread upon.
Lately I’ve been swimming in remorse,
While I struggle ‘cause my torso is heavy.
I’m empty bones in pure decline,
Like lights that grow dim over time.
Hate to find myself stuck in square one,
But you never cared to stay around when everything is said and done.
The only thing I’d like to say is that I’m moving forward
The only thing I’d like to say is that I don’t need you to stay.

Ghosts

I know that I’ve been withdrawn.
I thought I’d face this on my own,
Guess this sorrow proves me wrong.
The knots once used to be trussed up so strong.
The rope that laced us up couldn’t hold on.
A memory that crops up to haunt me,
‘Cause I really craved you presence,
But you’re far from what I need.
And I’ve taken all my time to make up my mind.
You let me drown but someday I'll be fine.
Been trying to show contempt.
The harder I try to forget,
The more I see I still care.
The days I needed to escape this grid
And all the times I act as if I did.
Did I forget you?
Or is it that this bridge keeps growing on.
The one that makes me feel you’re gone.
Did I forget you?
‘Cause you were with me, but your heart was somewhere else
You wore me down and left me callous.
Did I forget you?
Or is it that this bridge keeps growing on.
The one that makes me feel you’re gone.
Did I forget you?
‘Cause you were with me, but your heart was somewhere else
You wore me down and left me callous.

Refrain

Far from positive,
don’t think I’ll get over it.
You shed me and left me broken.
Enmity,
Despite what you said I lost my faith in comity.
‘Cause I’ve been holding this front for too many days,
While inside I refrain to say I decay.
‘Cause I’m not okay, no I’m not okay.
You’re miles away, but still your voice dwells in my head.
You’ll never know how much this drained me.
You’re stuck in here again,
Caught between my bones and my skin.
‘Cause now I feel like a placeholder,
I wish you’d never stepped foot in my heart.
If only I could move forward.
Promised things that I could never really keep.
Need to close myself off for my own sake.
Move on and build new walls that you will never break in,
‘Cause all that remains is grief and the void you left.
The void you left.
It’s like a distant voice that I can’t seem to forget.
I can’t run away from what we’ve been.
I’ll just scream and sulk in these four walls that I call my head,
Just know that you’ve lost a friend.
