I long to remember the days
When the wonders of the world still fascinated me
But now the world is clouded gray
And my curiosity has been dead for years
I long to remember the days
When my eyes were bright and my smile was warm
But now I can't seem to find any source of joy
And my misery threatens to cause me harm
I long to remember the days
When I could sleep without feeling paranoid
But now my demons hide in the fray
And my mind never ceases to destroy me
I long to remember the days
When my heart was full of love
But now I feel so devoid of emotion
And I lack any sort of devotion to gods above
I long to remember the days
When I was a sagacious person
But now I'm too afraid to say
The words balancing on the tip of my tongue
I long to remember the days
Without sorrow loneliness and pain
But I am no more than my mind
And all the hope I have is all in vain
