What It Takes To Move Forward - Dependence

My heart hurts and my body aches

I want to know just what it takes to move on, and to get gone

Because I’m not allowed to hold you, or say your name

It’s not allowed

I guess that’s just the way it goes, when you say goodbye

You close your eyes and all the flowers die

I guess that’s just the way it goes, from when it rains to when it snows

Where did you go?

That was the first day it rained

That was the first day that it rained

The first day that I knew I could be hurt again

That was when I knew I could feel, and that I had felt something real

That was the first day, and the last day

Where have you been, since then?

I miss you

I miss the skin that I could have lived in

I miss your company, I miss everything

I miss the nothings, the somethings, I miss it all

I miss the way that you’d call, to say who you loved

There’s always time to change your mind

But I feel like its too late to change mine

I’ve been so caught up in who I was

But it takes mistakes to learn how to make things work

I’m learning what I need to be
