Where is the boy I used to know
What has happened, where has he gone
And who are you that takes his place
Wearing his clothes, wearing his face?
What has happened to the boy I loved
So sweet, so proud, so innocent
And who are you that stands before me
Eyes dimmed, shamed, heart corrupted?
Can so much change in so little time
That the boy I used to know is no more
And you, are you what’s left
You, a shadow of his former self
Are you what remains of his spirit?
Where is the boy I used to know
Does he still exist in you
Or has he forever left my world
Never to return?
Tell me what I must do
Please, please, I beg of you
Bring back the boy I used to know
Tell me, and I will do it.
