Can't Let Go

Your face is stuck in my mind,

And it seems like I can't get away,

Still feel the sting in my pride,

You know I can't believe we left it this way,

No more promises to break

I find it's better off this way,

It seems I'm going it on my own,

Forgetting everything that I have known,

I tend to wash away your memories,

I tend to push them down,

I tend to forget what you said to me,

And when you were around,

I can't let go,

All my walls are crashing around me,

It's all I know,

All I am and all I will be,

This is all that's left of and what's lost by the way

Broken once for sure,

By the heart you tore leaving me so empty,

I remember the nights when we'd lay with each other

Just ignoring time,

Telling stories and jokes places we've been,

Places we would go,

No more pain that I mistake

I'm fine, no longer kept awake,

And now I'm walking this road alone,

But still I see your face, I just can't move on.

I tend to wash away your memories,

I tend to push them down,

I tend to forget what you said to me,

And when you were around,

I can't let go,

All my walls are crashing around me,

It's all I know,

All I am and all I will be,

This is all that's left of and what's lost by the way

Broken once for sure,

By the heart you tore leaving me so empty,

(And now a taste of your own poison)

These words will be your death inside my heart

(And now a path of debt you've left me)

Even what's gone on you'll play your part,

(And now the thought of you disgusts me)

Left for dead I stand again without the scars

(To see you choked up on blood will only justify

The years of tears that I can no longer hide.)

I can't let go,

All my walls are crashing around me,

It's all I know,

All I am and all I will be,

This is all that's left of and what's lost by the way

Broken once for sure,

By the heart you tore leaving me so empty,
