Active Imagination

When I grew up I wanted to be just like you But I don't know who that is anymore A frozen picture of someone I knew And something's keeping me from closing the door I never got to say goodbye I didn't know that that was why I've got such an active imagination I close my eyes and pretend like nothing's changed I know I can't just stay young But there's comfort in thinking you think the same We got cut off Before we knew what we could come to And I really miss being your friend I see your picture everywhere I move And I wish that I could know him again We never got to say goodbye I didn't know that that was why I've got such an active imagination I close my eyes and pretend like nothing's changed I know I can't just stay young But there's comfort in thinking you think the same I hope that you've moved on 'Cause I've been stuck in the same damn place Since you told me you were gone And I hope you're proud of me 'Cause you're the only one who understood What it feels like to not be free It was always see you later for me Turn the volume up to a 100 degrees, and Make believe that I had all I needed When a world without truth was all I could breathe in I had such an active imagination Now I close my eyes and see Everything's changed I need to grow up But it's easier to think that I'm to blame
