I Can't - Lauren Cimorelli

I’ll break your heart

Then I’ll pretend that I never meant you

I’ll pull us apart

With all the things that I never tell you

I’ll lose my mind

Just tryna understand all of these feelings

I’ll make you cry

But I would just be happy pretending

So I stay inside

On Friday nights

I promise you will have good intention

And I hope you know

It’s not personal

I want you, but I just can’t risk it

So don’t ask me to stay

I’ll be so far away

Before you even get the chance

Don’t know why I’m this way

All I can say

Is I just can’t

You break my heart

And now I’ll never really forget you

You tear me apart

And I’ll be wishing I never met you

So if you can’t tell

I like to keep to myself

I don’t wanna be alone

But it’s so much easier

To not get hurt

And I not get anything at all

So don’t ask me to stay

I’ll be so far away

Before you even get the chance

Don’t know why I’m this way

All I can say

Is I just can’t
