Day ten: memories

It´s been 10 days
It shouldn´t last this long
The doctors´ mystified
Nothing´s physical wrong...
But maybe inside his head
He´s struggling to survive
Would it help if we talked to him?
Bring him back to life...
Do you remember that time
We were showing off our brand new flashy bikes
You looked so fine
Until you both fell over and then started to cry!
Do you recall that day
Fearlessly we climbed the highest tower
Then you became afraid
Too scared to climb down you stayed up there for hours!
Do you remember that time?
Do you recall that day?
Do remember that time
Alone at last, naked by the fire
Then all your friends came by,
They rushed in the room and you had no time to hide
Do you recall that day,
You proposed to me fell down to your knee
You didn´t know what to say,
So she knelt down to for she thought you´d lost your keys!
Do you remember that time?
Do you recall that day?
Can you see her light
Shining through the black
She´s reaching out to you
What´s holding you back?
Can you feel her warmth
Glowing on your skin
Don´t repress the memories
Let them all in...
It shouldn´t last this long
The doctors´ mystified
Nothing´s physical wrong...
But maybe inside his head
He´s struggling to survive
Would it help if we talked to him?
Bring him back to life...
Do you remember that time
We were showing off our brand new flashy bikes
You looked so fine
Until you both fell over and then started to cry!
Do you recall that day
Fearlessly we climbed the highest tower
Then you became afraid
Too scared to climb down you stayed up there for hours!
Do you remember that time?
Do you recall that day?
Do remember that time
Alone at last, naked by the fire
Then all your friends came by,
They rushed in the room and you had no time to hide
Do you recall that day,
You proposed to me fell down to your knee
You didn´t know what to say,
So she knelt down to for she thought you´d lost your keys!
Do you remember that time?
Do you recall that day?
Can you see her light
Shining through the black
She´s reaching out to you
What´s holding you back?
Can you feel her warmth
Glowing on your skin
Don´t repress the memories
Let them all in...
