my favorite song

You used to say that you're just fine..
But I still wonder all the time.

Do you still believe in the stories told
To you by my friends and I when you were four years old?
how it got so cold, that words just froze,
we had to wait 'til summer to find out what was said
One of the best times that we had.

I know I say that I'm just fine,
But I hope you wonder from time to time.

I was nervous from the start that our muscles might tear us apart,
(are muscles tearing us apart?)
From the words that carve our lives to the words that take us by surprise,
(I was never taken by surprise)
From the sounds that disappeared to the changes we begin to fear,
(I can hear you clearly)
One day I'll fail to breathe, and all you'll have are memories..
(All we have are memories...)
