You say you don’t remember Meanwhile I can’t forget All the times and all the tones Of every word you ever said And still I feel that I don’t know Whether I’ve got credit or I’ve got debt I don’t know if I still owe Or whether I’ve paid it all off yet And now I’m sitting slack jaw Stunted shattered and afraid I hear the buzz of the saw Your cruel love is the blade Cutting deep, I’m sinking now Beneath stark waves of pain Time moved the edge straight down Past the nerve into my vein I’ve yet to let myself forget But you say you don’t recall I can’t seem to, I just need to ******* give up forget it all And when rain pours to the sky The earth crumbles from above Only then will it pass me by The memory of your love You say you want to be a friend You said its me not you You said that we would never end You said we’re a bond we can’t undo But you did... and I can’t... and I won’t... Forget it.
