Life Goes Its Way

Life goes its way, without me
Friends move on, like fading polaroids
Drifting apart, like grains of sand in the sea
No longer close, no longer in hand

Family fades to black, like a dying ember
Love ones lost, like a forgotten melody
Broken relationships, like a shattered mirror
Pain and sorrow, forever will last

Life goes its way, without a care
Leaving me behind, with only tears to share
I'm left to pick up the pieces of my heart
Wishing we could start, a brand new start

But life goes its way, and I'm left to grieve
Longing for what's lost, what could never be retrieved
The ache within, a constant reminder
Of love and friendship, that's no longer in sight.
