Each time I look up at the stars

I feel that I'm reminded of you

like an astral canvas

stretching it's open arms around me

and with every gaze

I remember what we once was

I also remember everything you did

to spite me... to hurt me...

tell me it's what I deserve

but it hurts more

than anyone could ever know...

and I lay under the trees

where I remain secluded,

secluded with our memories

under the stars

reawaken beneath the ice

under the lake

that same lake we once kissed beside

I was once so blinded

so I walked out to the lake alone

that's where I saw you

with your replacement for me

and it was then

when the stars had fallen from the sky

splitting apart my every dream

in a desperate attempt

to stop all the pain

I fled into the lake

and remained there for days

then the winter came

and froze me over...

and now I'm frozen beneath the sky

the starless sky...

each time I look up at the stars

I remember you

and remember what we once was

I also remember

that day you replaced me

for my best friend (my best friend)

nothing will ever be the same

and I know nothing can hurt

more than you've made me hurt

I've become invisible to you

every memory of me you had; died

but my memories still lived

I drowned myself

to escape this reality

one I couldn't bear

not now

not like this

not ever like this...
