I Forget

Simon Carly

All my doctors and friends 
Have concocted these theories 
Weary of seeing me day after day 
On the edge of my bed 
Leery of living 
My laughter on hold 
My sadness on stay 

And it's been this way for quite a while
Yes, I forget how to smile 
I'd like to rely on my old game and yet
Even that I forget 
It's not there, I regret 

Couldn't get up today 
I pretended a fever 
Any excuse but the truth will do
I don't lie very well
No I'm not a deceiver 
But I can't bring myself to admit that I'm blue 

And it's been this way 
For quite a while 
Yes, I forget how to smile
I'd like to rely on my old game and yet
Even that I forget 
It's not there, I regret 

The clock and the calendar 
Both an assault 
Time goes so slow 
It must be my fault 
I act like I'm okay 
When I'm not okay at all 

I forget what to do 
I forget what it all means 
Don't remember if love ever really felt good 
I forget to be here 
And not in-between 
I'd put on a good show 
If only I could

And it's been this way for quite a while 
Yes, I forget how to smile 
I'd like to rely on my old game and yet
Even that I forget 
It's not there, I regret 
I forget
