Far

Don't you remember we used to feel fine?

We used to let go of all that is bad,

We used to laugh and now we just cry...

How did we ever become so sad?

Every truth is now just a lie,

Every hello became goodbye.


Now we are all someone else,

Someone who easily forgets

Their hopes down in the silver lake

Made of our tears and our regrets.

Everything seems impossible here

Where every smile is followed by tear.


We grow up to live in this world

Where telling the truth seems absurd;

Where all of the memories that we forsake

Come back to haunt us while we're in bed

Crying at midnight, until we break

And hope that someday the pain will end.


 When was the last time we were happy

And truly content with who we are?

The last time we weren't feeling down?

The truth is that now we are too far,

Far from the life we want to see,

Further from children we used to be.
