lyrics

i couldn't remember it, that look in your eyes
if i tried hard enough, i know i wouldn't find
memories don't stick to the bottoms of my shoes
i scraped away every bit so i wouldn't think of you

hold me close, i tell someone else
as though you don't exist
i know deep down, deep down, deep down

that you're not the one i'll pick out in a room so full
cause i've trained myself to not be such a fool

hold me close, i tell someone else
as though you don't exist
i know deep down, deep down, deep down
hold me close, i tell someone else
as though you don't exist
i know deep down, deep down, deep down

that all of the things i've said, i don't think i'd want you to know
cause i swear that i don't hate you
but the world is a bitch for sure

hold me close, i tell someone else
as if i don't want you
but i know deep down, deep down, deep down
hold me close, i tell someone else
as if i don't want you
i know deep down, deep down, deep down
