Festering Wound

My head is gonna hurt
Until I come to terms
With what you said to me
I never thought I'd hear
Your lovely voice again
But lo and behold, here I am

You said that you missed
All the times we used to have when we were kids
I'd visit you
After you dropped out of school
And smile really big
Walking home in the cold December wind

And then we grew up
And misplaced our trust
I should've known people don't change
And I for one

I want to set fire
To this festering wound
It saturates my mind
No matter what I do
I just want a single day
Where I don't think of you
What's a guy got to do

My heart is gonna hurt
Until I learn
You wanna be dead to me
Well I can't give you that
But I can leave you be
I've got all these years to drink away

You said that you missed all the times
We use to have before you knew
That love runs out
And you didn't know what to do
But smile really big
So I wouldn't have a clue

And it's best we stay apart
This poison runs throughout our veins
But know that I will not forget your name
