If I told you I died once
But was brought back to life
Would you believe me?
What if I said you were the reason
That I feel so alive?
I live a life of fantasy
Where I can’t tell what’s real
And what’s not
I spend too much time in my head
And that can be a dangerous thing
I don’t even know who you are anymore
And you certainly don’t know me
Now I’ve made you into someone else
Someone perfect
But there’s no way you are who I think you are
Maybe that’s why I can’t get over you
I feel a connection
Because I created you
You’re no longer the guy I met last year
You’re not really the one that I love
It’s all so confusing now
I love you, but I don’t
I want you, but I don’t
I want to know who you really are
And not who I’ve made you to be
I want the real you
So I can figure this out
Work it all out
And finally see
If it really is love
And if it is, then what?
Do I tell you how I feel?
Or keep it inside?
Do I write to you, speak to you?
Or just avoid you?
I think what I want more than anything
Is to get over you
Stop loving you
Then
Forget you all together
Forget your smile
Your lips
Your eyes
Forget your jokes and stories
Forget all the little things about you
How do I erase you from my mind?
How do I forget you
When I can’t stop thinking about you?
How do I forget you
When I don’t want to forget you?
