I Can'T
I can't forget so I toss and turn but I can't escape what's forever playing in my
head.
I can't let go so I do things and say things because I can't accept being told no.
I can't think straight because my thoughts are twisted up in knots and since it's
all your fault I don't sleep and stay up late.
I can't move because every time I do, I keep going to the same old places and
that's bad news since all those places I discovered with you, so what am I to do?
I can't die because that's too easy for me and I need to live beyond my memory
and walk - no run to reality - without you.
I can't stop breathing, though each breathe hurts beyond the moment, but since I
must breathe to live and live I must - I relive the best part of all this because I
need to do this for me.
I can't hold helplessly on so I must reclaim my dignity - not so you can say you
helped me - but to prove once and for all that I am strong.
No, I can't and I've said it before but believe this time it's fore sure. I know that's
true - for a long time we've been through- but I refuse to go crazy so I must move
on and be over you, but I can't.
