Time passes by,and I still can't get you out my mind.I forgot how to forget you.
It's making me cry everytimethat I don't have you tonight,me, wrapped inside your arms.
You broke the wall in my heart,then built an army to destroy it I should've known your intention from the start.
What was full is now void,what was fixed is now broken,and what was love is now lies.
The poet asked for: I hate that I love love.

"I forgot how to forget you" got me right away, that's such an honest way to put it. This whole thing feels like it's still looping in your head. I really felt that ache.
