I don't know what to do
Pace around this room
Corner to corner
Wall to wall
Having a conversation with you, but you have yet to say anything
Like an instagram picture
You look at me
Smile
And proceed to tell me you're walking away from us
And all I hear is you saying "I can't do this anymore, I'm so sorry. I'm not in love with you anymore. I'm so sorry I hope you understand"
My eyes burn and my nose is running from seeing the I love you written on the wall
I don't even wanna leave this room
Or the house for that matter
But as I look around
I see all the things you left behind
They tell me you're so far gone
And what hurts the most
Is that I still wear the promise ring you got me for our 4th anniversary
Everytime I reach to hold your hand, you disappear like a ghost
I'm haunted by you
In my room
In my house
In my bathroom
In my car
I see...you
You're just another memory
Just another memory
Another memory
Memory
You got me fucked up
Why did you have to leave me like this?
I have almost no melanin on my skin
I'm whiter than printing paper
What am I supposed to do?
I'm still stuck on you
I need to step out the house
But what the fuck do I do?
I step out and see couples holding hands
Couples hugging
Couples kissing
And my eyes burn and my nose begins to run as I look at them
And realize I'm alone
Now I never want to leave the house again
For fear that I see you walking by
Holding hands with one of them
And what hurts the most
Is that I still wear the promise ring you got me for our 4th anniversary
Everytime I reach to hold your hand, you disappear like a ghost
You're just another memory
Just another memory
Another memory
Memory
I pull myself together
Wipe away the tears
Blow my nose
And tell myself I have to move on
I'm not worried
I'm forgetting all that I've felt
So glad that you are so far gone
That's when my cellphone rings and I wish you would call me
