Teach Me To Forget

Teach me to stop caring,
When you’re standing right in front of me,
Holding her like she means everything,
Exactly the way we used to be.

Teach me to stop crying,
Every single time I remember us,
You told me that I was your world,
Now you treat me like dust.

Teach me to stop remembering,
That night we spent staring up at the stars,
Trying to count them all,
Numbering them with each memory that was ours.

Teach me to stop blaming myself,
When I think about what I lost,
You the closest thing I had to happiness,
And losing you was the cost.

Teach me to let go,
I hate always having you on my mind,
Knowing that you have someone else,
knowing that you’re no longer mine.

Teach me to forget,
Just as you’ve forgotten about me,
Teach me to forget,
What was never meant to be.
