Don't tell me to forget

Stop telling me i have to forget
but show me how to forget her
Stop telling me i have to move on
but show me how to turn the page

You don"t seem to understand
stop singing the same refrain
You're driving me insane
i have been trying to forget

i have
Don't believe i enjoy having her
inside my head
Listen before thinking ahead

Can you hear?
That's my heart still screaming
waiting for the wound to heal
Forget her?

Now that's easy
mind showing me the way?
Trying to forget someone
is like trying to remember
somone you never knew

How i am suppose to feel?
What am i suppose to do?

What's the remedy?
a pill, drugs, anything
Get rid of this infection
Before her poison
starts to spread again

Give me, that one
Says it cures love
Bring it here before i asphyxiate
Hurry, sooner i swallow
sooner i'll exhilarate

Stop telling me i have to forget
but show me how to forget her
Stop telling me i have to move on
but show me how to turn the page

Should have told me
to put my seatbelt on
Before i got into the ride
before it was too late

The one who invented love
seems to have forgotten
to leave out the instructions
On how to avoid pain

The difference between us
Is she once claimed she loved me
as i did
But mine didn't fade away

i've gone cold
Days and days have passed by
Months followed closely behind
though my feelings haven't gotten cold

i'am but a stone
I can't see
there's only her picture over my eyes
I can't feel
only the memory of her touch
at the tip of my fingers
I can't speak
her name lingers on my lips
I can't breath
trying not to drown in the words she said
No one mattered except her

My heart hasn't discerned
that being close to her
Isn't worth it
if she doesn't want me anymore
I don't know if i'll be able
to give once more
All i have given her

Stop telling me i have to forget
but show me how to forget her
Stop telling me i have to move on
but show me how to turn the page

Only things left of her
Are memories and regrets
Only way i find to keep them alive
Before they become only but a blur

Is writing down
what no one seems to see
Letting my heart open
a least till sundown
where it doesn't need to forget
once it begins to dream

Maybe i'm the one
who doesn't want to forget
Gives my mind something to think about
My heart something to care for
My hand something to write about

-never believed in forever-

(a friend asked me to write him something to *rap*
O_o" sorry if it's a bit long*)
