Are you the person I met? The person I fell in love with? Were you really just someone else; Trying to be what you thought I w… Are you anyone?
Youth is wasted Proving you are a man Seniority is wasted Lementing lost youth

You made me young Took away all my excuses You brought me to life Demolished ever inhibition You taught me to love
All the spaces between. All the things left unsaid. They are like the air packed into a vanilla milkshake
I want you Out of my head Out of my heart I want your memory To leave me be
