Lyric

My gosh

The memory of you is fading

I don't want to erase it

I don't want to fade away

I don't want to forget you

Like the moment you wake from a beautiful dream

When you reach out your hand and whisper, "please, wait,"

Suddenly dragged back

Into this nightmare of a reality

I still cannot delete your photos

It would feel like denying everything I am

Those who cling to a faded glory

They must all have felt this way

To me, you were success itself

And to you what was I?

That unanswered question settles low in my belly

Heavy, gnawing at my heart

How much time has passed

Since the day you left me behind?

The past cannot be erased

The regret will not fade

In the end, before I know it, I am thinking of you again

My greatest happiness now

Is the moment I am not remembering you

Like clutching my head, "no more,"

The memories that made me

Now destroy me

The "past" you gave me, I cannot throw it away

What an elaborate cruelty this is

Everything, everything you ever gave me

Was always exactly what I needed

To me, you were happiness itself

And to you what was I?

Between ideal and reality, between life and death

On the very edge, I am still alive
