i wish i could just. . .

stop.

close my eyes and drive
all thoughts of you aside
walk a few thousand miles away,
keep the threatening tears at bay

if only i could just. . .

stop.

pretending that someday
you'd choose to be with me, you'd stay
thinking that i could
include you in my world

if only i knew how to. . .

stop.

myself from falling for you
over and over again,
my soul from crushing
everytime you turn away again

you are my lost cause. . .

if i only had the heart
to finally say. . .

stop.
