Music: Ryan Star - Stay Awhile
But they are past
It goes against all the rules I've had
against the instincts of when I was a child
But I am grown now
and I just want to forget all others, forget the past
I don't need to know her names
the hows or whens and whys
I know enough already
to know
that I can trust you
they are not me
I want to know your ups and downs
your story
But more than anything I want to know you with me
And I bear too much shame
for ever thinking anyone else was you
for ever giving too much of myself when I shouldn't have
I like the me I am now

Present Tense
Pasts are never dead and goneBut they are past
It goes against all the rules I've had
against the instincts of when I was a child
But I am grown now
and I just want to forget all others, forget the past
I don't need to know her names
the hows or whens and whys
I know enough already
to know
that I can trust you
they are not me
I want to know your ups and downs
your story
But more than anything I want to know you with me
And I bear too much shame
for ever thinking anyone else was you
for ever giving too much of myself when I shouldn't have
I like the me I am now
