moving on


look out my window I can see the sun shine

up in my bedroom I can see myself crying

and my pillow is a swimming pool

i just don't understand why you did what you did

my girls told me that i should watch out for you

i can't help it, i've fallen so dumb for you

but silly me i keep thinking i could make you fall in love

tie you down to the ground, don't know what i'm thinking of

look in the mirror, finally recognize myself

proble is i can't see me with somebody else

keep having thoughts about you

but knowing you ain't gonna change

my friends tell me that i gotta start moving on

i know that their right but why does it feel so wrong?

when everthing was jaded from the very start

i'm lying here trying to erase you from my broken heart

how i tried and tried, to give and give

i keep on lying to myself

and i cried and cried through the lonely lies

ain't no medicine or medical help

so i forgive you, it's time to forget you

i'm gonna stitch up my scars, stop the bleeding right here, right now

get you out of my memory, get rid on the misery

i gotta erase you somehow
