Why Cant People Remember

by Hailey   Feb 25, 2005


I Wish People Would Remember
The Way I Used To Be
The Person Who Laughed And Smiled
Before This Shell Replaced Me

I Wish They'd Take The Time
To Open Up Their Naive Eyes
Take A Minute To Remember The Girl
Who Now Lives In A World Full Of Cries

I Want Them To Go Back In Time
And Remember The Long School Days
Remember How I Always Listened To Them
And Made Things Less Boring In So Many Ways

I Wish For The Guys I Knew
To Remember More Than A Pretty Smile
To Think Back To All Those Times
Just Remember Once In Awhile

I Want All My Long Lost Friends
To Remember More Than A Story Of Rape
To Think Back When I Laughed And Smile
To The Time Before The Cuts Took Shape

I Want Those Boys I Kissed
To Remember The Girl They Called Theirs
To Actually Believe I Was Once Worthy
Or Just Take The Time To Say They Did Care

I Want My Mother To Say
I Was Once A Beautiful Little Girl
I Want My Brothers To Remember
I Didn't Always Resent This Horrible World

I Wish For All My Past Teachers
To Say I Had It In Me Once More
To Tell My To Just Try A Little Harder
Before I Rushed Out That Maths Door

I Wish For My Daddy To Say
I Was His Whole Wide World Once Again
Tell Me I Can Do Anything In This World
And Put My Pain To An End

I Wish All These People
Would Look at Me When I Walk The Street
Not Pretend They Don't Recoinage This Face
That Faint Smile Thats Now Replaced With Defeat

But I Still Continue Walking
As If I Don't Exist In This World
Because All They'll Ever Remember
Is A Faint Name And Not The Girl....

I Wish People Would Remember That Sweet Little Girl...Instead Of Some Empty Shell
