For This One Moment.

[Note: This is a song I wrote back in 2003 - my sophomore year of high school. It's about some overly-melodramatic event that happened during my freshman year. Obviously the lyrics are irrelevant to me now, but it's the sentimental value of the song that matters. Because whenever I listen to this song, it reminds me of being a pre-pubsecent, angst-ridden, emo-teenager. Haha.]



We've been hiding desolately underneath the lies.
One day when I'm lucky, I'll catch your eyes.
There'll be this moment of confusion - you just forgot him.
And I'll be the only thing in your mind.
Out of the past three years there's still one that remains.
The one period of time when I swept you away.
A point in our lives that we'd give anything to have.
A promise to stay with me; a promise you could never keep.

For this one moment your lips are mind.
For this one moment I can't lie.
For this one moment you're here with me.
I'd give anything for this to last forever.

How can we get back together after everything that's happened?
I could never pull myself together and forget what you did with him.
Football games will never be the same after that cold September night.
The one that you apparently erased from your life.
You promised that you'd stay with me forever and a day.
But she's keep her promise just in a different way.
But I still have these sleepless nights where I picture you in my head.
And I'm keeping you alive along with everything you ever said.
