Life Goes On

passion filled his eyes

and fear filled my heart

as I stepped inside his house

and took a seat there on the couch

if those walls could talk

I don't know what they'd say

cause our stories are so different

and we don't talk anyway

 

life goes on

I'm in a different place now

though a part of me is gone

life goes on

I'm giving up the mem'ry

in hopes that the past will soon be gone

 

hunger filled his eyes

and I didn't know it then

he was more like an enemy

than he'd ever been a friend

I didn't think it'd haunt me

didn't know that it would stay

I thought it was just one night

a mistake that I had made

 

life goes on

I'm in a different place now

though a part of me is gone

life goes on

I'm giving up the mem'ry

in hopes that the past will soon be gone

 

he took my heart

he took my soul

now everything that's left

I'll bury in this hole

I hope that he is happy

as I hope someday I'll be

his mem'ry's in the ground now

but there's life still left in me

 

life goes on

I'm in a different place now

though a part of me is gone

life goes on

I'm giving up the mem'ry

in hopes that the past will soon be gone
