have you seen her?
the girl in the red dress
follow her down
the girl in the red dress
only if you dare
to question it all
because, the things that you think you know --
they're not at all the same in her world.
the girl in the red dress,
she'll draw you into the greens
she’ll draw you in —
to the dead of the woods
the girl in the red dress,
she's a dream, she's a nightmare
have you seen her?
the girl in the red dress

It's funny how nothing changes but everything has.
Familiar faces become not so familiar.
Some songs will take on new meanings; while others will bring you right back into exact moments of forgotten memories.
Photos will always take you back and remind of the better things that you didn’t know you were missing.
Home begins to feel less and less like home but, you go visit old hometowns and places you spent endless days and nights in - just to have a different feeling loom over you as you wander around realizing how different everything is.
And, when the smiles begin to fade from the reminders — I wonder if I’ll ever feel those feelings again — if they’ll ever feel that impactful as they once did. I wonder if I’ll ever have friends like that again and if things will ever feel new again.

I live like I’m already dead,
all these broken pieces -
they remind me that i may never be whole again.
That is,
if I ever really was.
But, this is all I know.
Even when I find new paths to wander,
I still end up right back to everything that I already know.
