Once Before

Once Before
It's coming back again
I've been here once before
Familiar thoughts run through my head
If I could find a way
To make it all seem right
To get it back the way things were
Before (before)
Never the same

Pick up your feet again
Try not to fall behind
It all consumes you if you let it
I wish I could explain
All the simple things
And I despise the way we left it
Before (before)
Never the same
Just like I've always known
It's clear once more
And now these thoughts remain
That make me whole
Don't let it be unknown
They way we change
Is how we'll say
The memories
The way things were

Before
Just like I've always known
It's clear once more
And now these thoughts remain
That make me whole
You tell yourself it's all ok
It's clear once more
You tell yourself it's all the same
But these thoughts remain
