Coming down this morning Eyes are tired from warning shots Fired through the night as thoughts Rushing through my mind, as I fail to fall asleep Maybe somewhere out there You’re lying down to try and keep From having the same thoughts as me Slip into your mind so quick, and suddenly you’re back To a story lost, but maybe not forgotten The details blur and you wonder if you’ve truly lost them Among a million other memories along the way I couldn’t quite recall her name But when the Sun would set just right, I could still recall the night, just not the same As it was when we were young Like a puzzle missing pieces, I can still make out the image, it just appears a bit unfinished The seasons changed so quickly Before I knew it, you were gone On your own at twenty-one Set to find a life all on your own away from here You went to California You said the Sun would never set You’d eventually pay all your debts But you took a loan from me I know you never could repay But that’s okay Our memories aren’t worth much anyway And I can feel Them depreciating with each passing day Remembered as a love not lost but left behind Along the way I couldn’t quite recall her name But when the Sun would set just right, I could still recall the night, just not the same As it was when we were young Like a puzzle missing pieces, I can still make out the image, it just appears a bit unfinished Along the way, I lost track of yesterdays Was the Sun just a bit brighter, did I fight a little harder Or is that the game We all play inside our minds Just a hope to find another, future to discover, instead of the one we left
