three years, three months, eight days

january twenty-first underneath the milky way in the woods with the hippies i fell in love with you.

june fifteenth, 1996 i figured the first time that i left you'd find someone to replace me.

late september that same year i suppose i was surprised to find you hadn't changed your mind about me.

the next two years were some of the best times of my life with you.

sometime in the past eight months i guess you forgot that you used to love me. the past few days...

it's been hard to sleep. every minute seems like torture. i look at a photo of you and i can't forget the last three years, three months, eight days. i don't want to forget...

i only want you.

earlier this year my girlfriend decided we needed to take a break. the break only ended up lasting a few days, but that was one of the most emo times of my life. because i think life is simply about relationships, i guess. the other most emo time was when happythoughts broke up the first time, and maybe the second time too. it's just that the few people i let into my world are the people that mean the most. so it hurts the most when *they* want to leave. that's what this song is about. it hurt to know that my girlfriend wanted to be with someone else. it hurt to remember what we had. i thought all the time we spent together was something special enough to want to continue. in the end i guess i was right.
