Amnesia

And just one moment is all I ask for
Just one star between us
And just one second now
Some perfect clarity
And eighty hours alone

And I swore to God that I wouldn't cry
And I swore that I can't see
How it's anything more than a lie

And all these years
I won't ever let them go
All my fears
They'll break me down, down so low
And I'll be missin you
For a lifetime
But eighteen years were better than none
Until the time comes for me
To turn to dust

So I'll get on to finding
Know why she's inside out
I've always found it easy
To hide these thoughts of mine
A collapsing state of mind
I'll sink to where thoughts can't find me

And I swore to God that I wouldn't cry
And I swore that I can't see
How it's anything more than a lie

And all these years
I won't ever let them go
And all my fears
They'll break me down, down so low
And I'll be missin you
For a lifetime
But eighteen years were better than none
Until the time comes for me to turn
To turn

And we all hurt
And time heals nothing at all
Decisions made and they cut me off
From all I've ever known
And I can't think
No, I can't breathe
I can't be what I want to with this weight on me
Wish I had selective amnesia
To keep you away from me

But I'll be missin' you
For a lifetime
But eighteen years are better than none
Until the time comes for me
To turn to dust
