All I Ever Knew

What did you say to me
I wish I could remember
My memory of it is favorable
The words don't last forever

Only the feelings ever do

What did I say to you
I know what I meant
People don't always get you
They don't receive what you sent

They hear themselves, not you

Maybe I should be quiet
I'm wearing myself out
Challenging every moment
It hurts me without a doubt

It takes time to believe it's true

I know the world I live in
There is nothing but good
The questioned past answered
The believed future understood

My life is all it ever knew
