Empathetic Mind from Distraction Piece by Peninsula Repairs

Can’t get you
Can’t get you out of my head
I want to
I want to push it back down
How could you?
How could I forget when you said?
You don’t want me around
Can’t get you
Can’t get you out of my head
I want to
I want to push it back down
How could you?
How could I forget when you said?
You don’t need me around

I saw the news today and I didn’t flinch
A bunch of tragedy and I didn’t care one bit
I used to have such an empathetic side
But you took that away with one single line

That single line
How it broke my mind
That first part was a lie
I couldn’t get you out of my life

You’ll never grow if I keep reaching out to you
The chaos sounds nice, but it’s a fluke
Back to reality you realize you’ve been duped
With the touch of a hand that opened to you
I never thought it would end so quick
But then again I don’t know how to quit
It’s just a mind with some incoherent ticks
It’s just a mind of loneliness
