Old Memory

Take that love for him

Throw it all away.

Put it in a bottle.

Lock it up and never look back.

He's not worth the panic attack.

You don't need him

And you don't need the pain.

Cry your sorrow away

And let the tears heal the wounds.

Someday someone else will come

And they'll fix your heart.

The pieces will be sown together

Never to be torn apart

Again.

Bottle up that empty love,

The love that was never returned.

Put it in a box

And throw it out to see.

That boy never loved you

Its sad and its true.

That you gave him all you had

And he couldn't do the same to you.

He used you

He abused you

In every way he could

And now your left broken

On an empty beach with smooth sand.

Grab that bottle by the water

Fill it with your love for him

Seal it tight

And let it drift

Far, far away.

He's not worth it

Never was

So wipe your tears

And dry your eyes

Because someday it will all be ok.

You won't forget about him

He'll never leave your mind,

But one day when he thinks of you

And you think of him

You won't cry,

You won't scream

You'll shrug it all off

As an old memory…
