|
Woke up all alone, a bed that's cold and sterile |
|
With nothing of my own |
|
Bombarded and explored by faces unfamiliar |
|
Intrusions uncondoned |
|
Cruel thoughts in breif but lucid moments |
|
I'm losing all i've gathered all my years |
|
I wonder why these strangers look so sullen |
|
I wonder what i've done to cause their tears |
|
Swirling in my head, scenes and reandom memories |
|
Things i might have said |
|
Some of them are clear but none of them involving |
|
Those beside my bed |
|
I thought the golden years were for reflecting |
|
I thought i'd teach my grandson how to cast |
|
I thought i'd be the fireside storyteller |
|
I thought that i would revel in my past |
|
Waking only to see the shell of a man i used to be |
|
Save me i don't want to be a shell of a man |
|
Comfidence autonomy taken for granted till they leave |
|
Serenity i counted on was mine for a moment now it's gone |
|
Today i'm not alone |
|
She sparks a distant memory |
|
Someone i might have known |
|
She fills me in on things we did together |
|
She says she's loved me since that day we met |
|
She says that even if i don't remember |
|
That she will never let herself forget |
|
Waking only to see the shell of a man i used to be |
|
Save me i don't want to be a shell of a man |
