I don’t remember happy It’s been gone awhile I smile to convince myself But it’s like lying on cold tiles I wonder at which point I lost my giggle and my grin When did the switch flip It can’t be gone because of him I like to pretend The truth is a wall of armory But the words are from a book I didn’t read The story you told must have been a forgery Familiar is a script on rerun And your circus is just passing through Except your tricks are fancy Got me lost without a clue How did you get in My hustle must have stumbled Soul searching Chasing after trouble What happened to my Peter Pan He wasn’t supposed to leave Now he’s off hunting Going back upstream The treasure that you're after It’s exactly what it used to be The map's the same You think you’ll find something you didn’t see Hope floats And wishes wash away Some gifts just have pretty paper But mainly they’re a waste Wrap your expectations up Stop running to hide Turn your back and eliminate her The other is teary-eyed Now all I have is memories Alcoholic dreams Hazy days that rolled away Summer heat reveries I watched you sip my secrets Mix emotions in your drinks Let me believe empty security Nothing more than just a glimpse
