A long time has passed
And I'm still wide awake
In the middle of the night
Thinking about the mess
I had told myself
That when you had died
I would tell this story over and over again
'Til the day I cried
But even though life is short
Time sometimes passes so slowly
And even though I'm secure
I wanted you to know
That I was never your dolly
People aren't objects
That you can use and discard
Like a piece of junk
Wasn't that what you had thought?
But even thought life is short
Time passes so slowly
And even though I'm secure
I wanted you to know that I was never sorry
Everything I told you
Came from an honest place
Everything I left you was not to be used
So you could write a romance
People aren't like objects
That you can use and discard
Thinking about all the mess
You have in your life and make us tear apart
But even thought life is short
Time sometimes passes so slowly
And even if I'm insecure
I want people to know the side of my story
But even thought life is short
That time passed so slowly
And just a while ago
It was nothing more
Than a long lost different life
