Memory Lane

[verse] You walk down memory lane Trying so hard to shake off the pain Echoes of laughter still driving you mad Hard to forget what you don't want to have [verse] Pictures in frames dust in the breeze Thoughts of the past like a sickness that teases Your mind's locked up it's a tireless defender Hard to forget things, don't wanna... remember [chorus] Hard to forget the mess that you made Hard to erase the games that you played Chasing down ghosts in a stormy December Hard to forget things, don't wanna... remember [verse] Burned-out lights and a faded new start Dusty old letters leave a bruise on your heart You bury it deep but it sneaks to the center Hard to forget things, don't wanna... remember [bridge] Like a song that's stuck in your head Those wild nights and things that you said Shadows of doubt they only grow tender Still it's hard to forget the things you don't want to remember [chorus] Hard to forget the footprints so deep Hard to erase the secrets you keep The past, it sneaks up like a sly cold offender Hard to forget things.... all the things, don't wanna... remember [interlude] Old letters burn in the back of your mind Hoping to leave twisted memories behind Tides of regret crashing into the shore Hard to forget....too loud to ignore [bridge] Shadows of nights when your heart used to sing Turned into stars that lost all their gleam You're caught in a loop, past and present seem to blend Hard to forget inside you don't want it to end [chorus] Hard to forget the footprints so deep Hard to erase the secrets you keep The past, it sneaks up like a sly cold offender Hard to forget things.... all the things, don't wanna... remember [outro]
