Trying to make me remember time before you,
While I'm trying to forget life without you,
Letting go of what keeps us so closely attached
You forget that it's my emotions you're playing with.

I'm not a toy you play with, and then forget
I'm not a bottle of wine you keep locked up tight,
This isn't a stick of gum that's lost it's flavor,
I'm not a credit card you use and then throw away.

You forget that living without you
Would bring forth the destruction of myself,
Don't push me off this burning building,
Don't leave me behind when the ship starts to sink.

Without you here, the night is more ominous,
Every step alone is a heavier pain on my chest.
Don't make me remember life before you,
Because I've already forgotten life without you.
