Forget

Chirping crickets
Twinkling stars
And the sound
Of passing cars

I smell my perfume
And my cigarette
All in this city
That I can't seem to forget

I remember the parties
And all my wild friends
I remember my mistakes
That make this come to an end

I pray now
Only to be happy
But sometimes I think
That cannot be

I'm in love with someone
Who lives in Ohio
He's the only one
To give me a real smile

My heartbeat's for him
But still I'm in pain
I still want alcohol
Pot and cocaine

I wish just to forget
All that I know
Just to get rid of
Memories that won't go

I don't want the pain of missing
I don't want the sorrow
I want to look forward
But only as far as tomorrow

I don't want to leave
All that I've worked for
I want my life
To be so much more

I wish to live in the moment
And to know someone cares
I want to be with my love
I wish life was fair

I want a real life
Or as I see it
I want back what I've lost
I pray to forget
