I Was

This is the lyrics to a song written this past week. Take it for what it is, and for whatever it means to you.

One day I was just who you wanted me
Then I realized that I would never see
Things that would make me smile
Where I could stay a while
These dreams just tore away
My soul, so won't you
Take back everything
That makes me whole
Take back everything
You ever needed
Take back everything
Just make this fade away
Take everything
That I ever was

So I still see you when I close my eyes
These dreams terrorize
Me in the daylight
So I fade away, locked inside my cell
Just to think of days before I fell
When you weren't around
So won't you do this for me
Take back everything
That makes me whole
Take back everything
You ever needed
Take back everything
Just make this fade away
Take everything
That I ever was

One day I was just who I should be
Then you realized all that I see
Things that won't let me smile
No place to stay a while
Still these dreams tear away
My soul as you
Take back everything
That makes me whole
Take back everything
You ever needed
Take back everything
Just make this fade away
Take everything
That I ever was
