I wish I could change

What things have become

The lies I want to believe

The truth I can't hide from.

The people I've known

Who have drifted away

Who are lightyears from me

Even though I see them every day.

The things that are not

The things that can't be

Have slipped away from others

But will always remain with me.

The way things are

Is almost impossible to take

Nothing's like before

No more sense of it I can make.

I loved the way things used to be

When I was friends with you

But that's all gone forever. It can never come back

And it's all I have left to hold on to.

...It will haunt me forever.
