You say you listen but I've said before I can't.
Those old wounds still haven't healed,
But yet you still ask.
I've forgiven but why can't you understand,
I can't forget.
Years I loved and in one second I lost.
So don't ask me to do this,
Not this.
Cause I can't. I just can't.
Not this.
My whole Life I've smiled.
Treaded through life making everyone else happy...
But now it's time for me to be selfish.
Cause you asking me this hurts.
You know how much I lost.
You weren't close to it all but I was.
My friends,
No... My family.
So no I won't
Cause I just can't.
So please,
Don't ask me to do this.
Not this.
