I want you to take another hit, another sip, forget me. I want you to smoke one more cigarette, without me. I want you to lie awake at night, thinking, of not my face. I want you to picture someone new, in my place. I want you to loathe, any idea of what was. I want you to know, that this is what a broken girl does. Indulge in your sinful habits, foggy memories, forgotten nights, take my place. When you look at me, feel hate. Or feel nothing, I'm nothing but a basketcase. For I am lost, in the world of moving too fast, to just moving on. Stroking your innocence, ignorance. I want you to take another hit, another sip, be tempted to forget me, and all my sweet belligerence.

Temptations to Forget
I want you to take another hit, another sip, forget me. I want you to smoke one more cigarette, without me. I want you to lie awake at night, thinking, of not my face. I want you to picture someone new, in my place. I want you to loathe, any idea of what was. I want you to know, that this is what a broken girl does. Indulge in your sinful habits, foggy memories, forgotten nights, take my place. When you look at me, feel hate. Or feel nothing, I'm nothing but a basketcase. For I am lost, in the world of moving too fast, to just moving on. Stroking your innocence, ignorance. I want you to take another hit, another sip, be tempted to forget me, and all my sweet belligerence.
