One Year Later Lyrics by Black-Striped Prism

Shattered Prism

2015

One year later/I'm still traumatized
When you said goodbye/You left me paralyzed
But I harbor these memories cause they're the closest I'll ever get to being with you again
It's unhealthy yes, but I can't let go of you, or any of our most precious moments
I should take what I've learned from you
And move on too
I should take what I've learned from you
And start anew
This particular moment marks the start of the healing process
With all of my might I'll take any reminders of you and lay them to rest
I won't cling to a person from my past that won't emerge in my future
Why do I say that as I frame your most captivating picture
I should take what I've learned from you
And move on too
I should take what I've learned from you
And start anew
By embracing the silence, I discovered things I wasn't trying to find
I've grown to see not with my eyes, but with my mind
And use my heart to guide me when I'm feeling distraught
I'm stronger now/Allow me to convey my reserved thoughts
I couldn't help but need to send you a letter for an official conclusion
As I'm writing this my instincts are telling me this is the right solution
Without you I'm incomplete/For a year that's what I would think
While your desire to meet new people grew mine would shrink
Compulsively not a day has gone by that I didn't utter your name
I try to distract myself but I'm always the loser when it comes to playing that game
Persistently I have flashbacks of the most unforgettable times we had together
Like the nights when we extended our arms and wrapped them around each other
And I would ask you to look up at the stars and compare you to them
You glowed brighter and gave off more warmth than anyone could ever fathom
When I go to sleep and begin to dream I see the strongest you I've ever seen
So radiant I can feel your heat/You have enough power to light up a galaxy
That strength has passed on to me so I can escape these chains and be free
Our ending sparked a new beginning/A farewell to you invited a hello to me
A new me is awakening/Don't recognize the person I'm seeing
But I'll give myself a warm welcome cause now I'll start believing
I should take what I've learned from you
And move on too
I should take what I've learned from you
And start anew
