You At The Piano : -Dema ------------------------ I see your hands touch the keys. I hear a familiar melody. Each song I know by name. You used to be so familiar to me but now your face is out of reach. As the song progresses forward, I remember what we used to say, when we fought dragons in the childhood days. What did I say to make you shy away? What did I do that made me so insecure? When did we decide to cut the ties? Replace the friendship with brittle lies? Saying you never knew me - that's crossing the line. What if we were meant for so much more? How did I lose you? Somewhere deep inside the screen - small traces of thin memory. What if we were meant for so much more? How did I lose you? Somewhere in those rusted keys, I listen for a message from you to me. When did we both agree it'd be better if we weren't seen? All the miles spilt us apart, and I think those miles killed my heart. Now the miles are closer, yet you're farther than ever now. I thought 'friendship' meant more than a shallow vow. I dare to say I keep your name in the contacts of my phone. When did we think we had to live this life alone? What if we were meant for so much more? How did I lose you? Somewhere deep inside the screen - small traces of thin memory. What if i still need you? Feels like I'm losing friends these days. Can't the music that you play, bring out the colors from all the gray? I feel the vignette from the corner. I easily see you getting older. When you were close, I couldn't see. Now you're as far as west is from the east. If you tried, could you keep me alive? I hope you would. Somewhere deep in the melody, I want to tell you everything. What if we were meant for so much more? How did I lose you? Somewhere deep inside the screen - small traces of thin memory. What if we were meant for so much more? How did I lose you? Somewhere in those rusted keys, I listen for a message from you to me. "goodbye." ----- Sunday - 1:00 pm
