    I don't remember your face
    Though you say you remember mine
    You look to me as though I'm a higher power
    Though I'm nothing more than flesh
    The light reflects from my eyes
    The same as it reflects from the eyes of my brother
    My heart beats the same
    It'll stop beating one day and I'll be gone
    But you say you'll never forget me
    What have I done that you won't ever forget?
    You said I touched your soul
    Yet I don't know your spirit
    Please help me to understand the reasons why
    I need to know what I've done

    You said to me

    "If you let yourself fall into the pits of obscurity
    No one's going to remember you
    And you're never going to be able
    To make a mark upon anyone's life
    You've got to hold your head up high
    You've got to keep marching on
    No matter what happens
    Things may get rough
    Things may get heavy
    But so long as your head's held high
    You're never going to have trouble
    Pushing through the barricades
    That are holding you back
    From where, what and who you want to be
    Mark someone's life
    Make an impression"

    I replied

    "Obscurity's calling my name
    I won't answer"

    It must'nt matter what I did to touch you
    The smallest reverberation through your soul
    Was all that took for you to remember me forever
    Though I'm not a higher power
    The mark I left on your soul
    Causes you to feel as though I am
    It causes you to feel as though I could heal all wounds
    I can't promise I can
    But I can promise I'll never forget
    The way I changed your life

    I don't think I put it together right though. Like, reading back on it, it doesn't make much sense to me... haha. But thanks for the comment. :)
