Within This Enervation

The time flew by
In a haze of smoke and jaded reflections
Snow came and went, rain fell, sun shone
Though life felt sheltered
Time had gone

I try my best to forget
I try my best to move on
No time to waste just holding onto things that have gone

I try my best to forget
I try my best to block it out
Though things I leave behind
Just haunt me more and more

What can we do?
(We're only human after all)

Isn't it a shame
Things won't ever be the same?
Isn't it a shame
Things won't ever be the same?

I try my best to forget
(The things that came and went)
Yet my mind lingers on the things
(I miss more than anything)

I try my best to forget
(Those lost just years before)
Those things I leave behind
(Just haunt me more and more)

I cannot find what isn't there

I try my best to forget
I try my best to move on
No point in holding onto things

I try my best to forget
The things I leave behind
