I remember those feelings vaguely
The ones we had as kids
Each time the seasons changed
And showed us what life is
I remember how good it felt
To sink deep into the snow
Watch the rain hit the ground
And make the flowers grow
I remember the sun returning
Let's go lay out, you'd say
We'd lather ourselves up
And waste away the day
I remember the wind changing
And the smell that filled the air
Back to school we'd go
We didn't even care
I remember how we changed our paths
And went our separate ways
As time moved on around us
And took away our days
I remember the close calls
We had throughout the years
Not a day went by where one of us
Didn't have that fear
I remember getting comfortable
Things seemed to be okay
Until the dreaded call
That took my hope away
I remember the very moment
As I said my last goodbye
I wiped away the tears
And hollowed out inside
I remember that feeling daily
It's the only thing I feel
Life since then a cloud
Nothing seems quite real
I remember words like happy
But haven't felt it for long
My head is filled with noise
I can't drown it out with song
I've tried just about everything
To forget the life we had
Erase the daily thoughts
When all I feel is sad
Nothing seems to work
My life was meant for pain
My internal padded walls
Confirm that I'm insane
I remember those feelings vaguely
The ones we had as kids
I'd like to feel again
And remember what life is
