Forgetting is simple if you don’t think about it But certain things haunt you like uninvited encounters You can’t seem to erase it from the back of your mind no matter how hard you try And just when you think you’re alright It creeps right back in like a thought you’d just pondered Some people have that affect on you, Wish I was stronger But I don’t, I won’t, I can’t think about you this time I can’t, do this, won’t dance around feelings that were never defined You’re gone, we’re done, there’s nothing left to say in the silence and I’m broken in pieces, and here I am reeling Staring at the ghost of you leaving It’s etched in the portrait, just like you left it Missing the good times before we buried secrets Lonely and wishing we could repaint the memories, disguise them with distance But instead we say good riddance to the marks you made on my heart without ever even touching my skin But I don’t, I won’t, I can’t think about you this time I can’t, do this, won’t dance around feelings that were never defined You’re gone, we’re done, there’s nothing left to say in the silence and I’m broken in pieces, and here I am reeling Staring at the ghost of you leaving Darling, can’t we just forgive and forget Or is the hole in our souls too deep to let go Cause we knew better, We did our best Time just won’t let it pass But I don’t, I won’t, I can’t think about you this time I can’t, do this, won’t dance around feelings that were never defined You’re gone, we’re done, there’s nothing left to say in the silence and I’m broken in pieces, and here I am reeling Staring at the ghost of you leaving
