Image drawn, I take a bow
People asking why and how
All the hope lost all too fast
Thrown expertly into the past.
You won't be asking how I am
Or holding me back into your arm
I'm thinking how the new ones are
Where they've been, how long, how far.
Unconvincing, in the bench there I sat
Next to you, but always just that
Never closer and nothing more
Just me and myself like before.
I can barely hear your sweet voice
Telling me that I don’t have a choice
In the bench you held my hands
And said to me that was my last chance.
Now I have to learn myself to live
And keep all things I want to give
While you forget and then pretend
And I remember you're just a friend.
