System Syn - For Memories You'll Never Have

for memories you'll never have
here's to you
for the life you'll never lead
pour another round
now close up inside
careful not to let anyone in
for the life we'll never share
here's to you

as the sun revolves around you
do you recognize your beauty
do you know that all their eyes adore you
so perfect in your innocence
do you recognize your beauty
this beauty of the memories you'll never have

for emotions I could never expect you to express
and for the person who you think I am
let's bury all that
let's put up a wall of barbed wire
in between our human sides
so between the two of us
no one ever has to see our minefields
our desolate playgrounds
who's sand is truly the ash of our adolescence
for the life we'll never share
here's to you
