Take Them.

Give me that Eternal Sunshine, that comes with a hefty price.

Rid me of my memories with every single slice.

The ghost of your touch upon my skin drives my heart insane.

Just thinking of your tender lips, I wish I could abstain.

 

Stop haunting me with your blue eyes, you laugh, your voice, your smile.

I need to learn to shut you out, to empty every file.

Come peaceful mind and empty heart, your loving warm embrace,

Bring your numbing Novocaine and rid me of his brace.

 

Take all the things you did to me, the good, the bad, the lies.

Take back the time I gave to you, break all our ling'ring ties.

I think it might well **** me, to just forget your face,

But you're not the man I thought you were, so go ahead erase.

 

If I could choose I'd turn back time, and change the things I knew.

Like all the things I could avoid just by avoiding you.

You may have made me happy, when things were simple and right,

But I'm tired of this emptiness, this never ending night.

 

I need to feel the sun again, to be whole without a crack.

So hurry here, go'head begin to take the whole lot back.

I won't remember missing you, or the happiness I had.

I won't the recall those feelings, only purity will you add.
