1997

Nineteen ninety-seven
November, I still remember
It was the end of the year, I had nothing and you had a new job
That's when everything happened
Life was hard, but together everything was fine
Some fights of course, but that's so normal when you want someone
How I wanted you

I wanted to kill all your friends
Fake and phony. Who smiled when they saw me
And I found company in a drink, a cigarette, or any other drug
Since I didn't have you anymore

Relearning the way home wasn't so simple
In the first days, I got lost in my steps without you
I barely knew what to do
Sometimes we’d find each other on the stairways
I tried to say something, you always laughed, everything will end well

Almost ten years later, I can understand
That I had to move on, with or without you
I don't even know how I got here
But know that I am happy
Your absence almost killed me
Today I have everything I ever wanted

Nineteen ninety-seven, I still remember everything I want to forget!
