The marks beneath my step
Are different from before
My height lines etched beside my bedroom door

Why can't I go back?
Why can't I go back?
Why can't I go back to when things were so simple?

Old names will pass me by and
I'll remember everything
Every corner store and every fight
It was only yesterday

Every thought I had inside my mind
Is trapped behind my mouth
Still, everything is because of you

And why can't I say what I'm thinking?
What's on my mind?
The simpler things, a tender care
Whenever I seem to laugh again

The glow of the window before my eyes
On the summer nights
The promise of a good night's sleep
Was broken to be with you

And old friends have come and gone
Gone away they have
And sometimes it's hard to see the magic of friendship when you're alone

But it's okay, sometimes we feel alone
Somewhere, we all have our height lines
