I Knew You

Fallen far Fallen fast Fallen down Fallen hard Dreamed a dream That never was That never will be That never could be All is broken All destroyed My heart Shattered A fragile peice of glass Thrown from the highest peak Of Mt. Everest I wander away from everything I wander away from myself I cannot stand this What we've become Which is people Who used to know Eachother Who used to know What the other Was thinking I knew you better Thne I knew myself And you always knew Everything I was feeling But that's all gone now And it grieves me so It makes me weak I just can't belive How things are What we've lost Eachother... Ourselves... And today When I saw you I almost didn't recognize Your face And all my thoughts Ran together As I stood still, frozen As we just stared At eachother Recognizing, realizing Fully All that had changed I smiled You smiled Then without a word We both walked off On our separte ways
