More than a memory

The truth is tearing me up inside










Hard as I’ve been trying to hide it in my mind

You’re still more than a memory

Why else would my pillows be soaked with my tears?

Even if I know it was all in vain



And writing about you brings me nothing but pain

I have to get rid of the words

Echoing in my head and singing like birds

I have to kill them out of my thoughts


Like I have to get you out of my heart

Otherwise you’ll keep haunting me in my dreams

Until I’ve become nothing but a grave

Even if I know that the past is gone


I can’t fight the hope anymore

It finds me anytime, in any dreams

To make sure that you be more than a memory

So please don’t leave me alone


I can’t struggle against my demons anymore

Give me a chance to set things right

Please don’t let me cry at christmas night..
