I've been holding onto memories
Too blind to see the past
Rose colored glasses
See dreams not meant to last
We hide from our own failures
We hide our hearts from pain
Knowing somewhere deep inside
We can't go back again
The good times shine much brighter
Than the anger and the tears
Forgetting what tore us apart
Softened through the years
You learn from your mistakes
Or repeat them one by one
Scars that never seem to fade
Until your time is done
So, let me put these walls up
To protect this fragile heart
And hide it from the dangers
That tore my world apart
