The Past

This life moves on without me

a never ending tick

a motion

of which I can't be a part of

when stuck so far in the past



in the regret and the pain

and in the memories shared

that'll I'll never have again

because things are different

when you're moving forward

and I'm standing still



I've thought of moving on

but when I look to the uncertainty

I realise I couldn't be what I want to be

focused too much on the 'good times'

that I dread to try to make more

just in case I fail

and walk away without you



So I'll listen to my clock

and accept that I'm old-fashioned

because the better dreams I've had

are already dead and gone
