Description
So this is how it is.
I listened to the saddest music for you,
Did you hear it as I was crying?
Did you hear it because I was crying?

I read a book today I knew you'd hate,
And I can sing hallelujah for you if that's what you need
I can forget to wash my hair for you,
I can remember to wear my glasses.

I can wake up and ignore that you were ever there
Breathing
Sleeping
Just existing next to me

You're still so young to me
I can teach you how to sing if you'd like
I can learn what you know
Or try and play guitar
I can forget I don't know these things
And that dragons won't look the same.

I can move on like I knew I'd have to.
I can pack your presence away.
Drink the wine on my own
And leave Japan behind me.
I can breathe your name only in my loneliest hours
And give up everything I once wanted.
I can teach myself to cry at nothing
And to embrace the cold and love the weight you carry
I can forget every inch of you I pressed my lips to
Every beat from your heart to my ear.
Every glint of silver in your eyes.
Every hair that went missing.

I can forget that I ever loved you.

I can't forget the glass from our photoframe.
I can't forget the times we shouted.
I can't forget the scars you wore.
I can't forget your eating habits.
I can't forget the times we stopped.
I can't forget when you weren't there.
I can't forget the cliché of loosing you.
I can't forgive how much I let myself care.
