Almost Over
August 20, 2011
Every secret moment,
And every broken promise
That you've seen.
Every second chance,
And every single lie
That you believe.
All the faded memories,
And all the crooked smiles
That you're starting to miss.
All the reasons to be happy,
And all the fun you had
That you can only wish.
Suddenly stuck in this burnout scene,
Wanting to start over.
Because now you give a damn
Now everything matters
Now you have to try harder.
Because now,
Now you're alone.
And you'll only get lonelier as time goes on.
