Embracing Memories

I get a knot in my stomach and I can't breathe.
My hands are shaking and my palms are sweating.
I want to cry.
Ther's nothing else like this feeling that just makes you want to curl up and die.
Cause its the memory of you and the memory us and the memory of what might have been.
The days we spent together keep dancing through my mind,
Like the ghosts of dream
Turned into a nightmare.
Being here.
Being without you.
Has brought me back to a place where flowers grew,
But now lays harvest only to weeds.
Why can't we go back?
Why can't we go on?
What happened to a love that once beat so strong?
Once you said us. Only us.
Now you've changed the melody and I can't sing along.
And I'm here in this place
That onced belonged to us.
Only us.
And I'm remembering the days we spent close in each other's embrace
Now the embrace has faded and I am left alone...
I've got a knot in my stomach and I can't breathe.
