High School Days

It just hit me recently
I never got to say goodbye
Sometimes it hurts when I'm alone
I can't remember when I cry
Yet I can't seem to let it go
I feel I need some kind of closure
Although it saddens me to say
Those days I miss so much are over

When was the last time that we spoke
More than a quiet "how are you?"
And do you lay awake at night
Wishing there was more you could do?
Would you have fought a little harder
If you knew this was the end?
Some things just aren't meant to be
I guess we weren't meant to be friends...

So as the days get shorter
Nights go colder
Slowly, you're forgetting my face
And as I feel more lonely
Staring coldly
At the hole that grew in my place
And as the days move forward
Names become blurred
Nothing's ever going to change
But like a clock won't need
All of its pieces
I'm not needed, cast me away

When I had nothing left to lose
What more was there that I could give?
When I had nothing but my name
What reason was there left to live?

If I could only ask one question
Of the thousands that I have
I guess the one that I would choose
Is if you'd ever wanted me back...?

So as the days get shorter
Nights go colder
I can't seem to find what I've lost
And while I'm left with nothing
Feeling-crushing
Painfully aware what I cost
And as my life gets shorter
I get older
Someday, I'll forget you all too
So while I'm moving on
From what is gone
Just don't forget to hurt who loves you
