a lesson on forgetting

a song i meant to post a while back

"A Lesson On Forgetting"

I've been moving through phases
of hating you, and wishing you would die
to me, to be dead to me,
to missing how you loved sometimes and those lies
made to my face
just to get your way
you knew not consequences there
my fear is i was alright with that

but love and hate won't coexist
and we can never love each other like we did
and hate can't be within my soul
so i need to be okay with this
and learn how to forget you

glad one of us could move on

glad one of us can sleep

but the other thinks of you every day

most of the day, there's no release

been wishing for another

to relieve this held up pain

cause I can't do it alone

I can't do it alone

cause love and hate can't coexist

and I'll never love you like I did

but hate can't be in my soul

so I need to be okay with this

and learn how to

forget

you
