damnatio ad bestias

7th June 2011
( This one is an oldie. I wrote this when I was 13, and this is the song that made me realize that I used to be a sappy and sentimental 8th grader.  So the story behind this song is;  back then I had this guy best friend. He was everything I needed and wanted,  the definition of the perfect partner in crime for me. Things went downhill when we enrolled in different schools. He went from my best friend to a stranger. I was heart broken, in result, I wrote this song. Now we still contact each other, even though not as much as we did when we're younger. He has his own life and I got mine, and that's the end of the story. )

So here it is, a song called Gone.

There you are, stuck in a conversation
While I'm looking for a chance to break in
Keeping up with everything you said

We used to be like Bonnie and Clyde, we're the main attention
Now the golden days are gone, what we should have been
Leaving me cold, am I too late?

R:  I try my best to make you stay
      While time sneaks in and ruin the day
      One second you promise to never let me go
      But in a blink now I see,
      You're gone

How you make me feel worthy when I know I'm not
All of those sweet words, where did they go?
I'm still waiting for them to come back, back to me

Things are different now, I guess it's hard to connect the dots
From a 9 year old boy to a guy I barely know
Well, time could change all the things we couldn't see

B: They said you never know how fast live moves
     Before you realize, everything you had are lost
     And while I got the chance,  before life took you away
     I want to say that I love you, I love you so.
