eraser

i wish i could tape over the words inside my head
that one little line that you never should have said
i'd fill the void with music, with something loud instead
or maybe something quiet, or a story that i've read

go; just go away now please
and take your lies with you
before i hear another word
and rethink all this through

i wish i had some white-out that could make you go away
at least the way you smiled when you saw me look your way
i did my hair all pretty, and you made me wait all day
and i don't think it's fair that i have to act okay

go; just go away now please
and take your silly games
get your name out of my head
and all the happy things you said
that made me like you till today
please won't you go away
just go; i'll be okay
