In this song Tilian can’t forget about an ex lover, he tries going out with a different girl but everything she does just reminds him of his ex lover. He tries getting over her but he realizes he eventually can’t.
[Verse 1]
You say you want me to notice the motives
That are forming inside your head
I try to go through the motions
To show you deep down inside I'm not dead
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Look at your face and I forget your name
I feel her ghost in every breath you take
Will I ever love you that way
When you say...?
[Chorus]
If I want it, I should take it
If you move me, I could shake it
And I'm trying hard to fake it
But I can't let her go
Taking love from you to waste it
Take your heart in just to break it
And I'm trying hard to fake it
But I can't let her go, go, go
[Verse 2]
Try to feel pain when you hurt
Just like I used to feel when she hurt back then
I know it's not fair you deserve
To be cared for and all I can do is pretend
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I hear her voice in every word you say
I feel her ghost in every breath you take
Will I ever love you that way
When you say...?
[Chorus]
If I want it, I should take it
If you move me, I could shake it
And I'm trying hard to fake it
But I can't let her go
Taking love from you to waste it
Take your heart in just to break it
And I'm trying hard to fake it
But I can't let her go, go, go
[Outro]
Look at your face and I forget your name
I know it's not fair and with every breath
I feel a burning shame
When I can't let her go, go, go
