Memories Remain

Memories Remain

A Poem by Travis Prino

What do yo do when the sun won't shine?

cause I'm stuck in this gloom of mine

we used to talk, we used to run together

the last time I saw you I can't even remember

and what do you do when your days are cold?

sleeping with the light on cause you're afraid to be alone

you lost the one who truly guides the way

hanging on to the words you couldn't say


but this heart doesn't forget easily

all the time we spent we felt so free

but I'm trapped, bound, and gagged on the floor

like a rat caged and searching for the door


what do you do when the nights don't end?

the day becomes a faded memory in your head

and darkness seems to be your only hope

insanity will come to help you cope

so what do you do when all that's real is gone?

all that's left is all that went wrong

my remedy lies in this knife and these pills

once and for all I'm going for the kill


and this heart doesn't forget easily

all the time we spent we felt so free

but I'm trapped, bound, and gagged on the floor

like a rat caged and searching for the door


we can't relive the past

but we can try to put the past behind

try to move on with our lives

we can't relive the past

but we can try to put the past behind

try to move on with our lives


cause this heart doesn't forget easily

all the time we spent we felt so free

but I'm trapped, bound, and gagged on the floor

like a rat caged and searching for the door

this heart doesn't forget easily

all the time we spent we felt so free

but I'm trapped, bound, and gagged on the floor

like a rat caged and searching for the door


we can't relive the past

but I can't move on without you

cause the memories will always remain.

Just a little caveat to my writing, 95% of what I write are lyrics so excuse the length and repetition and don't be deterred by that. Hope you enjoy. Feel free to comment. more..
