Carolines Spine - Forget lyrics

I can see how we started so innocently.

As I agonize my way through another yesterday

I still don't know how you could have sunk so low

You wouldn't follow me with the rest of them

Now I'm by myself.

You wouldn't protect me from the rest of them

I'm beside myself and I'm trying to forget...

As I pack up the things we shared

I try to convince myself I never cared

yet I feel that we were the only real thing.

When I think back to when we were one

then you accuse me of things I never could've done

and you never confessed of looking for excuses.

So I retreat to my family

who showed you endless generosity and yes,

I hear a sigh of disbelief.

So, I will go on with my life, court another,

maybe gain a wife and I'll try to outgrow

just going through the motions.

You will alwasy be a step ahead in the back of my head

while I'm trying to forget
