Two and a Half

I still remember the days I spent protecting you The days where all I wanted was to keep the grave from you And to this very day, the memories won't go away Shaped into your image and I still feel like a fool Two and a half years have gone so quickly Lived them for myself, no one else Those days left terrible scars, I tried to change the world Those days altered who we are, I tried to change the world Now here today the scars have all faded away A new adult formed from the cocoon of those better days Two souls clung onto life, two souls embracing a knife The sharp edge carved us to each other, now gone in separate ways Two and a half years, so much has changed We're not who we were, but that's just life Those days I smile upon, when I tried to change the world Those days I'd never relive, when I tried to change the world Now that we've lived, we can try To see better days
