I wish you were a liquid
I could extract you from my veins
and never have to see
your pretty face again
or if you were a song
stuck so deeply in my head
I would just have to play
a different song instead
maybe a scent
stuck deep within my nose
I'd could just go outside
and smell a garden rose
even a dream
had deep within the night
I would just wake myself up
out of sheer fright
but sadly you're a scar
cast deep upon my heart
growing deeper
as we stay apart

growing deeper
