Memories Of Me

You used to be so alone
You never let anybody in
Never used believe in love
Maybe you never will again

You finally let someone inside
Thought you had a partner for life
But all that slipped away
Now you doubt you'll have a wife

You never liked to smile
Most days you still don't
Maybe you'll find what you're looking for
But you still believe you won't

You always built up your hurt inside
You never would let it out
You finally let God take all that rage
But once again you're full of doubt

You never felt like you fit in
You were meant for a different age
You never would talk about these things
You always wrote them down on the page

Drawing, painting, writing poetry
How you always dealt with your pain
For a few years you thought you had it all
But now only the memories remain

You gave and gave of yourself
Maybe you let yourself get used
But now that it's all said and done
Once again you've been refused

Now you sit and wait and wonder
Who you were and who you will be
At times you can't stand to look in the mirror
And face all of those memories of me
