Best of you

I shoulda loved you!
I shoulda tried a little more.
But I didn't want to!
Now I see you behind every door...

You're just a memory!
Slidin back and forth in my head...
You're my enemy...
And you scream the words that I never said!

Its always so ironic
I needed space and now I'm all alone...
But I was honest...
At the time how could I have known?.

I can't forget you!
God knows how hard I've tried.
My brain won't let you...
...escape because you keep it alive!

You're just a memory!
Burning into me like a tattoo!
You left your energy!...
And there's nothing it hasn't consumed!

Goodbye to you doesn't do a damn thing!
I've had the best of you!
But its the rest of you!...
...that leaves me down on my knees.

I need a way to escape this...
A way to find some release...
...from your memory
...seeping into me...
I'd kill it but it keeps me alive!
You're the only thing that keeps me alive.
