i know that your heart is changing
and i know your life is rearranging
but i don't have the room to change
and my life is getting too strange
to lose, you
and when i said goodbye
i didn't tell you a lie
when i said i'd see you again
and i'm glad in this life
through all of my strife
i could call you a friend
i don't know, if you'll keep me round
pick me up or leave me on the ground
but i dont have room to make mistakes
i just don't know how much room this takes
to keep, you
and when i said goodbye
i may have said a lie
when i said i'd see you again
and i'm glad in this life
through all our strife
that you still call me a friend
it's dark
it's cold
it's much
too old
this pain
i feel
insane
but real
and i'm sorry
cause when i said goodbye
you know i told a lie
when i said i'd see you again
i couldn't take the strife
holding onto life
i don't wanna see the end
yeah when i said goodbye
i said a lie
i said i'd see you again
i hope you see me through
and forgive me too
and i'll see you in the end
who knows when we'll meet up again?

Baylees rock says this is so awesome and it made her tear up...she doesnt cry often, she loves this dearly.

I fancy:)
I can't wait to hear you sing it! i loved the progression in the chorus. you want to believe the first part then you convince yourself that the latter is true. i can relate to that, though not in quite the same way, if you know what i mean. sit back and relax army boy. -
Alright. I'm good for a moment..
"and my life is getting too strange
to loose, you"
to loose you? or to lose you?
Error I always make, thought I'd check.

I love you. And you know I'm your biggest fan. ...I'm gonna miss you like hell, bro.

I like this piece. It is thoughtful and concentrates on mortality and uncertainty. I love the effect of the shortened lines in the fourth stanza, and the lines "it's much/too old" hit home with me.
