As I grow my world shrinks and I begin to think
Objects of my past diminish as I age fast
A couch to a small child is a jungle in which to go wild
A small child has so many places to hide
As we age, ourselves we begin to hide
My mind hides great things inside
Though my heart has be caused to divide
A mile wide
Memories confront me, confound me, constantly surround me
Reminding of who I was, what I don't wish to be, how can i escape me?
We are nothing but our memories, I ask the world to forgive me please
The world never answers my guilty conscience
The consequences for my actions are
A mile wide
Into a room I meet a familiar old man with little of life's cheer
He beckoned lean near whispering in my ear why he lacked fear
"Imagine your imagination conceived mans every evil notion"
"Imagine your imagination conceived mans every good emotion"
Think of those you meet with evil notions and those with always
Good intentions, the number between the two?
A mile wide
A wonder of my past lover, what she kept of herself undercover
In my defense, my love was intense
I remember it was instant,I admit the arguing was constant
One view, the start, the first beat of my heart
Love at first sight? GOD it felt so right
My heart skipped beats, the time between felt
A mile wide
My world's broke up, shattered, scattered across this land
by the hand of my mother, father, family and friends
Now i must gather my fragments so i can mend
Others lives have been worse, i won't pretend
You know what i just realized?
the difference between all our lives?
A mile wide
