[Verse 1] Thought I could hold the door Tiny hands in a giant war Shout till my throat ran dry They just pushed, ignored my cry Next thing (Don’t move, stay still) Cold hearts (They broke, my will) From happiness to burning land Learning not to trust a friend [Chorus] When it’s too clear, I can’t forget So I blur it and drown it then drag it to bed If I let my mind breathe, it keeps me there So I pour one more drink One more smoke in the air Too much pain to remember Too cruel too upset ‘Cause when it’s too clear I can’t forget [Verse 2] First it was weekends, stupid fun Laughing loud till morning comes Then it was waking with a shaking tongue Chasing calm, chasing numb Little pills for a little peace Lines to wake and sooth Tell me, who I’m supposed to be When every mirror knows the truth? [Chorus] When it’s too clear, I can’t forget So I blur it and drown it then bring it to bed If I let my mind breathe, it keeps me there So I pour one more drink One more smoke in the air Too much pain to remember Too cruel too upset ‘Cause when it’s too clear I can’t forget [Bridge] People say, “Just get clean” Like it’s dust on a sleeve ’Cause they don’t wake up In the same old scene (every night) If healing means Watching it all again Tell me how to live Through the same dead end [Chorus] 'Cause when my head’s clear, I can’t forget So I smoke and I drink yet I drag it to bed If I let my mind breathe, it drags me back there So I pour one more drink One more smoke like I don’t care It hurts too much to remember Too cruel, yes I’m upset ‘Cause when it’s too clear I can’t forget When I’m too clear, I can’t forget If I get clean I won’t forget.
