Me
I hold onto things I shouldn't
I find it hard to sleep
I think way too often about things
Of all these things I surely do keep
Old memories
Good or bad
Happy or sad
I never let go
People around me
Friend or foe
Nice or mean
I never let go
Dark nights
Dreams or nightmares
Amazing or tragic
I never let go
I remember and hold tight to everything
I like to never forget people or memories
I wish others felt the same way about me
But this surely isn't true I now see
I am too different from the norm
I spend my time writing instead of partying
In every way or form
I don't want to be the norm
I like waking up in my own bed
The one cozy place I can lay my head
If I get so drunk that I can not remember a night
I get mad and in my mind I'll constantly fight
So I love being different
I love not being the norm
I love remember people and memories
I love, me
