I've never slept so sound, so silent
With images of broken dreams and broken things
All I ask of you now

Is please do not forget me
Please do not regret me
I never meant to leave


Going back to the beginning
I never thought I'd make it out alive

Work harder, work harder
They told me
My father, my father

Would he be proud of me?

[Chorus:]

If you could see me now
You would take back all the things that you never said to me
And how I tried to make you love me

But how can you love a ghost, love a ghost of what was meant to be
You'll never know,
how much I loathe you


Keeping all my hopes within me
I never thought I'd be forced to tell a lie

Live longer, live longer
They told me
My father, my father

Would he be proud of me.

[Chorus]


Keep me in your mind
Think of all the wasted time


Where were you?
I'm waiting, still waiting


Keep me in your mind


[Chorus]
