Songs I Wrote

You Here (Old Song)

Verse 1: I remember when I left. Millions of tears were left. He made it worse. Hard work and long hours just to unload and unpack. Transformation is complete, but still missing my friends that were so sweet. I remember that first day of school. I dressed out to look cool. Took me weeks to know where to go, but I was just out of place. Moving was a mistake. Do they miss me? Am I gone? Have I been on their minds? Have they replaced me?

Chorus: Remember the first day? I thought nothing could take you away. I thought we'd always be friends. I thought I'd be the popular girl like I've always dreamed. I met him and I was pushed aside. I thought I could take it, but I couldn't handle mostly being alone. When you two were together I was the only one in the world. All alone. Long journey. No friends. No company. Reliving a life that isn't worth it. I thought I needed you. I thought you had the key to set me free, but now I see. If I was here and if I was not. You wouldn't care you'd just move on. I wish I stayed. I thought you would make my life worth living for. You're nothing like her. It's not fair to push us all away when we want you to stay. We push you to life, but you choose the knife. I don't know why but we both know they need you here.

Verse 2: It was breakfast and I'm alone. I sat at an empty table and letting the thought of complete loneliness wash over me. Then she came and saved me. I didn't expect to be saved so fast. I met her friends and I couldn't be happier, but now all I can do is cry. They hated me from the start. The other two don't wanna talk to me at all. She just pushes me away. She just wants to love me, but now she's pushing me aside. She left because I can't tell her my depression. Real friends help each other. I turned my back and you let me fall. You saw my name so you ignored my call.

Chorus: Remember the first day? I thought nothing could take you away. I thought we'd always be friends. I thought I'd be the popular girl like I've always dreamed. I met him and I was pushed aside. I thought I could take it, but I couldn't handle mostly being alone. When you two were together I was the only one in the world. All alone. Long journey. No friends. No company. Reliving a life that isn't worth it. I thought I needed you. I thought you had the key to set me free, but now I see. If I was here and if I was not. You wouldn't care you'd just move on. I wish I stayed. I thought you would make my life worth living for. You're nothing like her. It's not fair to push us all away when we want you to stay. We push you to life, but you choose the knife. I don't know why but we both know they need you here.

Verse 3: We were both in P.E. I felt pressure fade away from me. I didn't know after half the year was through I wouldn't be in the same class as you. Now crying is all I do. I'm glad you didn't see me today. I walked down an empty hallway I was filling with tears. Every stair felt like forever. I wish we could be together. I knew I was gonna cry so I tried to hold it in as long as I could. Couldn't make it very long. Just sat down and the tears fell down. They felt like fire burning through me.
