The Minds Files

by Dark Angel - Pisces

I've been thinking a lot lately
Taking a trip back to the past
Trying to sort through things to forget about them
So on my soul these shadows won't be cast.

I'm slowly finding my way towards the light
Cleaning out some old memory files that haven't been accessed in years
Revealing conflicts that I thought I had locked away forever
And the old feelings that I thought would never reappear.

I'm stuck here on one really big file
That I can't seem to make myself delete
Thoughts and feelings racing up my spine
Causing my heart and mind to compete.

Each winning half the battle
Causing half the file to be demolished
And they're still trying to tear out bits and pieces
But there are some things that neither of them can abolish.

Its been three days since I've spoken to anyone
Things in the past finally blocked my mind
And I'm desperately trying so very hard
Along with my heart to get everything redefined.

It's hard to clean out old files
Throw away your minds old picture shows
But sometimes you just have to do it
It's the only real way you can be sure to let go.
