I'd do anything
To wipe your smile
From my mind
But the harder I try
The harder I fall.I can tell myself it's all okay
I can say it's in my mind
But yet today I still find
Myself falling for youI want to wipe the slate clean
Forget the pain and all the hurt
Put those memories under lock and key
Keep what happened away from meI want to wake up without you
Like you were never even there
I want to wake up forgetting how it felt
To run my fingers through your hairI want to forget your every breath
Let me cry out in agony
For I do not wish to remember
That painful memoryFor your existence shattered me
I'm still a disaster in your wake
I'll never recover
Just please let me forget you
