They say there's a reason why The rearview is smaller than the windshield but I digress, it's a sick twisted thought in my mind that I cannot push away and haunts my soul each and every day Move on, they said. But what if I don't want to? What if they're wrong? What if they just don't know you like I do? Move on, I said. All I did was care Too much, you said I would never hurt you But my advances were arrows to you My heart was a gun and now I'm out of ammunition I walk these streets Broken and torn Reminded by the memories of us, now distant and forlorn I pull my hoodie strings as tight as they can go Hiding as much of myself possible to people I don't know With a permanently neutral expression on my face I'd give anything to erase The memories of what was once something good That's now slowly strangling me by the strings of my hood...
