Young

I kept running from the things I couldn't face

Every memory another empty space

Tried to hold on but it slipped through my hands

All the moments I could never understand

And I feel it break

In the quiet of my mind

Every part of me

Left behind

When we were young—

We thought we'd never fall apart

When we were young—

We held the fire in our hearts

Now I'm standing here

Trying just to breathe

Lost in the pieces

Of who I used to be

Every heartbeat feels a little out of place

Like a shadow I can never fully trace

I keep searching for the voice I used to hear

But the echo just keeps pulling me back here

And I feel it break

Every time I close my eyes

All the moments

That I tried to hide

When we were young—

We thought the world was ours to hold

When we were young—

We didn't fear the growing cold

Now I'm standing here

Trying just to see

What's left inside

The fading part of me
