Derek Chos Poet Lyric

What I Swore That Day

Thought I saw you when I was working the window
Turned out to be a dream, what do you know?

Some times I think back to those times and then I laugh
Imagining how life would be if I took another path

I realize that I've spent the last month wondering
Wondering how you have been

Seems after our war you left without a trace
Ever since then I think I'll see your face

Hiding within a crowd but I know you are long gone
I had accepted it, even though the lines were drawn

Somewhere within my head, I just can't stop wondering
Wondering how you have been

Suicide, unify
Seems like forever ago

Suicide, unify
Seems like an eternity ago

My memories are mysteries
As to why I still miss you

When you died, I'd confide
Unto your grave, I still miss you

And in the years to come
I'll still be holding on

To the promise I swore to keep
Not to join you early in eternal sleep
