lyrics

I was never meant to do anything good.
Wasn't the best even though I tried more than I could.
It doesn't even try to compare,
A moment for a memory, it just doesn't seem fair.

Try my best, but I find,
Can't erase, can't rewind,
Something I had done long ago.
Deep inside, I still try,
to find something that I could relate to to help let it go.
Though I tried to untangle my mind,
to remember all those times I thought I had lost,
They were all gone...

I've been in this room many times before,
I've turned this handle and I've walked this wooden floor,
What do you mean I can't recall?
I refuse to believe you are telling me the truth,
That once long, long ago,
I had spent my life here with you.

Try my best, but I find,
Can't record, can't rewind,
Something I had lost long ago.
Concentrate in my mind, couldn't stand this surprise,
God I wish I had thought to let it go,
I still don't know why I see the world the way it is,
I told you I can't fix it, even though I try to fix this.

Took something there for me,
You'll never be able to see.
To see...

Do I have to forget,
Something I do not regret?
It doesn't make any sense,
It doesn't make any sense.

Do I have to confess,
Something I cannot regress?
It doesn't make any sense,
It doesn't make any sense.
