Forgiving yourself,
sometimes is letting go,

Letting go,
sometimes means not caring anymore,

Not caring anymore,
sometimes feels like pain,

Sometimes pain,
is pain,

Sometimes pain,
is being sorry,

Sometimes pain.
is having no more,

and sometimes,

missing,
can lead you to the floor,
can lead you to a door,
can make you skip the number four,
have you eat food you abhor,

Sometimes,
it's all just saying,
there's no time for sometime,

but really

someone in the song,
is from some time you adore
.

I will stay
a longer while
if you continue
to smile

We can be strangers if you like
We can talk about the weather
Our silly plans for the weekend
Or how life has been kind to us
Trust me, I'm a terrific actor
You'll hardly be able to tell

We can be strangers if you like
Or at least we can pretend that
It doesn't shred us to pieces...

i draw with silver
lines, x's and spots
under a sleeve
so i never get caught

my canvas is my skin
and so with the blade i drag
across my peach paper
so they won't be mad

i'm sorry, mom
i'm sorry, dad
i'll never be the son you wanted to have
perfect grades,
happy and smart

i'm so sorry...
i'm sorry i have to tear us apart
