shaking hands and broken glass,
shards cut a hole through the space between reality and expectations
you're trying to find anything to bridge the two but you're looking in the wrong places

forgotten friends, forgotten faces,
scrawled across on the ceiling as you're lying on the floor
forgotten dreams, tearing at the seams,
if you could change it wouldn't you?

staring at the ceiling you don't understand why it had to be like this
how did things get so wrong so fast
you're falling apart and there's no one to put you back together
you're falling apart and you'd give anything to get back to the start

forgotten friends, forgotten faces,
haunt you as you pick yourself up off the floor,
forgotten dreams, have you finally remembered them?
you're going to change it aren't you
