Easily Erased

I still see you when I close my eyes
I can't even know peace when you're not near me
How some things never change
All of this time and I still can't keep the pace

Will you break all of the promises that you made
For you it should be easy to erase
(My love for you)
(The accidental absolute)

What part of "I can't take it" do you not understand?
I'd rather never hold it than have it leave my hand
All of these nights that you visit me
But I still don't have your company

Every life lived a thousand times still ends in goodbye
All the fucking years I've lost

My eyes are dry for the first time in my life

Will you break all of the promises that you made
For you it should be easy to erase
(My love for you)
(The accidental absolute)

How much longer
Until I feel better?

Most days they're wasting nothing on you
I thought I could sleep at night
And had to walk around with them
Unless there was someone like, you know-

Old love's lost but never gone
The things that we won't be and the places we won't see
They no longer haunt me

Holding a loaded gun to my love
Your hands are covered in the blood
Of the weak and the willing
