farewell
demxntia Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hate to see you go
But it'd be worse if you stayed here
Don't misunderstand
Thinkin that ur in my way, dear
It's the opposite of hate
That's gonna be holding us down
I fear the day we go our separate ways
Escaping this town (it's inevitable)
Creating all our memories
And everything they meant to me
Lock em all away in a safe time is the enemy
Of love and all the feelings we shared




I'd like to say that it's enough
Just to know that you cared
