The melodies give way to dissonance,
and all the souls you've met
you realize you will one day miss
(You will one day miss)
Ebb and flow, the come and go
All the faces I used to know,
they flicker and fade
They get lost in the passing days
and I'll never be sure how some paths can converge
only to drift apart,
As if to weave some complex work of art
Uncertain I press on boldly,
and pray that time might move more slowly
Forever entangled in past tense,
the better times, and where they went
and the innocence lost at our expense.
So moving forward don't forget all the people who once meant
the world to you, who helped you push through
the troubled times and stayed true
But with every passing day, people change,
and I just wish some things would stay the same
Trying to hold onto every day
Blurred and gray, they all just slip away
