I cannot escape
The thoughts of you,
Emotions that I thought I'd left behind
With my memories locked away
But here they are, exposed
And I'm laid out and wondering
What I've buried in my mind
In this ocean I am drifting far away
When I can feel and life is real
It's always when remembering then
I'm locked in time
I can't escape
I've run so far and found no place
That I can be completely free
Without the chain of what remains
Another time
Another place
And memories that I can face
Always I'm delayed
And thinking of the many things
I wish that I could say
But my words get tied up
And you've gone on so well
So why am I still lingering on?
Why am I still here
In this ocean I am drifting far away
When I can feel and life is real
It's always when remembering then
I'm locked in time
I can't escape
I've run so far and found no place
That I can be completely free
Without the chain of what remains
Another time
Another place
And memories that I can face
