Backpack

I remember
Things that couldn't last
I can't forget ya
Though the years have passed

The words you gave me still remain
Not always said just right
They're tangled up in who I am
And sometimes still ignite
But still I speak them now and then
Until I see the light

Now I grab my backpack
As I move along
I say the words that I used to hate
I walk the steps I thought I'd break
But now I find the strength I need
And carry on despite the weight

The words you gave me still remain
They guide me through the fight
Your love is with me through the pain
And through the darkest night
Your voice will always keep me sane
Until I see the light
I'll carry you
Until I see the light
