The Cover of Forgetting

Took every last one of your pictures off my mirror
So that I can see myself just a lil clearer 
Don’t want to be reminded of what I was with you 
Therefore Imma ditch you to get away from the terror

A relationship full of twist at first good 
But then all turned into rage 
To avoid you I do things like
Annoy you and not call you for days

But now I’m ready …. Ready to forget
To forget the good times along with the bad
To forget what we’ve made with each other
To forget us ever being in existence

Yes I’m covering it up so I won’t be reminded
Reminded of your smile and your laughter
So I’m not acknowledging you 
And for what its worth I’m closing this chapter

I am covering up my true feelings 
Because to me it just seems a lot more relieving
 So I say to myself that I am done 
And that I’m finally leaving

I have now took my emotions covered it up 
And put them in the back of my conscience 
I can’t make myself look weak anymore
So this is the last time and I promise

I am covering up and I am forgetting
