Slipped away

Have you ever sat poundering why you hold on the way you do to someone for so long? Maybe we dont want to let go because we are afraid of the pain we may feel. We would rather hold on for our dear lives then face the facts. And rather then feeling the pain 100 knives couldnt compair, we turn and cling to a reality that doesnt exsist except in our own mind. Maybe we're afraid of when and if we do realize its that way, and afraid of the after. Will that person change to someone we dont recognize..or have they really been that way the whole time? And its "me" that is changeing...
It all comes down to that fact that these people were and are a part of our lives and have left their fingerprints on our hearts. And no matter how hard we try to forget we know we can't.
The truth of it is we dont let go until we are ready...And sometimes thats why we have to wait.......
We let go........

AVRIL LAVIGNE LYRICS"Slipped Away"

Na na, na na na, na na
I miss you, miss you so bad
I don't forget you, oh it's so sad
I hope you can hear me
I remember it clearly
The day you slipped away
Was the day I found it won't be the same
OooohNa na na na na na na
I didn't get around to kiss you
Goodbye on the hand
I wish that I could see you again
I know that I can't
Oooooh
I hope you can hear me cause I remember it clearly
The day you slipped away
Was the day I found it won't be the same
Ooooh
I had my wake up
Won't you wake up
I keep asking why
And I can't take it
It wasn't fake
It happened, you passed by
Now you are gone, now you are gone
There you go, there you go
Somewhere I can't bring you back
Now you are gone, now you are gone
There you go, there you go,
Somewhere your not coming back
The day you slipped away
Was the day i found it won't be the same noo..
The day you slipped away
Was the day that i found it won't be the same
oooh...Na na, na na na, na na
I miss you
