lost a friend and more
Forgot how to speak tonight.
I knew the words somewhere but they wouldn't come out right.
I started a fight when I tried to say
What you mean to me every day.
Forgot how to sleep tonight.
I knew how to close my eyes but could keep out the sight
of your screaming mouth and your eyes,
tearing into my alibis.
Forgot how to breathe tonight.
My throat closed over and my chest felt so so tight.
When I started again I tried again to forget,
but I haven't stopped again yet.
Before all that I forgot you.
Forgot how you were human as well and you needed love too.
(don't take that the wrong way,
I only meant to say I'm sorry, ok?)
Tommorow maybe I'll forget it all,
forget my pain and forget the way I made you feel so small,
forget the way you screamed your hate.
Besides, we never even had a first date.
