In Memoriam

It's finally starting to feel like Christmas... and I'm loving that. It's snowing as I type this. I got wrapped up in the Gaither Vocal Band last night, and in Bing Crosby's "White Christmas". If this isn't Christmas I don't know what is. 
I'm headed back to my bed tonight and while not living with my parents is a boon, I'm not really looking forward to it. The parent's are back from Nebraska, and I'm headed by to my apartment after watching the dogs all week. It's been a blast and I really, really, (no seriously, I really mean it, really) like living by my self. I like being able to watch whatever I want with out comment from a roommate or to be able to make whatever I want for dinner, with no regard to anyone else, and I love not being aware of anyone else's bed time.

Someday I'll be on my own... someday...

In Memoriam - Everybody Else
Took a sip from a bottle of orange soda

Suddenly you were back
On my bike years ago
While sharing the camera
You passed by, so quickly

I remember you
So remember me
As i was back then
In my ripped blue jeans
Moments ago
It seems to me
That we were just kids
In a memory

I still see the blue, sunken barge
Down by the shore and i
Can taste the blackberry juice on our fingers
But there’s an echo of careless, callow footsteps
That run by so quickly

I remember you
So remember me
As i was back then
In my ripped blue jeans
Moments ago
It seems to me
That we were just kids in a memory
In a memory

It feels good to forget how wonderful it was
In the noise of a crowd
But sometimes cars in the night
Sound like the ocean and
Then i swear
I'm back there
Seems so real
It disappears

I remember you
So remember me
As i was back then
In my ripped blue jeans
Moments ago
It seems to me that we were just kids in a memory
Moments ago
It seems to me
That we were just kids
In a memory
Moments ago
It seems to me
That we were just kids in a memory
In a memory
In a memory
