I Don't Know You Anymore

The past is not helping, I long to run
Because although it breaks my heart.
Although I hate to say it, regarding my life
You definatly were a part.
I clung too close but never close enough
I was scared to live up to my best.
Because everyone who said 'I'll never let go'
Always, always left.

I never said it to pass time or make a show
I always told you what was true.
It was in blind hope, bitter disappointment
Because you didn't feel it too.
You pulled away first, into your gold
While I was sinking and drowning in you.
I was trapped, you took all my strength
I just couldn't break through.

And still after all this time
I found I can breathe no more.
You have my heart, it's still beating
Though I don't know what for.
I can't walk past you without curling inside
Each day I die a little more deep down.
I haven't moved on, I doubt I ever will
Though this beat never makes a sound.

I have memories inside that refuse to fade
All of them painful reminders of you.
It hurts to think instead of being a person I know
You're now a person I knew.
