If I could just turn back time
And erase every memory
That you have of me

If I could just patch each hole
As my smelted love spills over
From each stabbing word

If I could undo the wounds
Then there wouldn’t be any scars
That retell the past

If I could just go away
You unaware of my absence
It wouldn’t hurt far

If we could wake up today
Both numb and estranged
Facile ways to part

If we could, would we?
Would we ever?
Should we ever be?
