Memory, Uncaring Friend

Watching
Cowardly eyes atop the mountain
Keeping your distance from your feelings
Feelings change and now you're reeling
Trying so hard to find the reason
Why you are alone
Reason
Why you keep this empty feeling
Hiding lonely in the darkness
Hiding from yourself

Clawing at the friends you see
Hoping for a day that's free from caring
'cause you never found a thing in sharing
You stripped your clothes
To leave the past and burned them
Memory, uncaring friend
Naked on the mountaintops
Killing those who still come near
You grow cold
Smiling mad as things fall down
Prowling, hunting goals you'll never find
Taunted
Friends lie torn and scattered round
Hating
Friends you say you like the most
Losing
Never seeing that you've grown so frozen

Distanced from your bitterness
They think they hide
Watching you from far away
They never offer
Never try
I always leave myself open to you
You never see
You never try
I throw the rope
You slap it aside
You howl in the air and laugh tonight
Because you feel
Yes you know you feel
With the fresh taste of pain keeping it real
You walk away and cry to yourself
As your feelings change
But you can't return

Memory, uncaring friend
