We go through the motions
The usual like always
But now there's a different notion
That we're following today

Something has changed now
The tension, there's more
We start to ask ourselves how
There's less love than before

The fire has burned out
Just enough for us to know
The end is here without a doubt
And it's time for me to let you go

CHORUS:
A sad face and drowning tears
Makes you face all your fears
Maybe its time to finally let go
Of all you've learned and all you know

"Writing, I think, is not apart from living. Writing is a kind of double living. The writer experiences everything twice. Once in reality and once in the mirror which waits always before or behind."

I have 3 but here they are:
Truly Great friends are hard to find, difficult to leave, and impossible to forget.
Life isn't measured by the number of breaths you take but by the moments that take your breath away. And the only problem is time.
