Remember Me

It's safe to say I'm lonely now.

A place called home

Is just a memory away.

I know I've done this all before.

A thousand silent voices begging me to stay.

Apologies all left unsaid,

Secrets better left unspoken.

Dreams are slowly put to bed,

Rumors stirred and re-awoken.

If I try to get away, how long until I'm free?

And if I don't come back here,

Will you remember me?

It's safe to say I'm nothing now.

It's all so quiet but I can't forget the sound.

A thousand voices call my name.

A thousand hands that pull me back down to the ground.

I turn away from what you are.

Denying all that you have given.

I find a place that's safe and far in time all will be forgiven.

If I try to get away, how long until I'm free?

And if I don't come back here,

Will you remember me?
