I think it was a thrill
I really can't recall
The days on months spent laughing
Hugging, crying, adrift
Grounded by the bond
Forced into vultures
Thieves of my life
And I think you knew me then
But I can't remember when
Somewhere I lost myself, along the way
Lost you
To lose me
Muddled up the sense of it
The way it used to be
And for all the smiles and solace
I wish I could recall
If we had much in common
Or maybe nothing at all
The day I stopped with living
The moment I tried to breathe
Drowning in the panic
I'm not who I was
How did we get here?
And what did we do?
Beautiful misery from the ideal
Burning as I'm unaware
And I think I knew you then
But I can't remember when
I lost myself, along the way
Lost you
To lose me
Muddled up the sense of it
The way it used to be
And for all the smiles and solace
I wish I could recall
If we had much in common
Or maybe nothing at all
Still, I'll see you there
Hollow words that seep
Formality rehearsed to perfection
More lies to prove the truth
Strangers now, passing lights
With nothing left to give
The tears that slip don't care
And neither do I, anymore
But I think I knew you then
Though I can't remember when
When I lost myself, along the way
I lost you
To lose me
Muddled up the sense of it
The way it used to be
And for all the smiles and solace
I wish I could recall
If we had much in common
Or maybe nothing at all
Our crossroads were long ago
Now we walk the path...
