Loosened my grip on you

And then you were gone

Out there on your own

This clump of your hair

Is all that I hold

I can't forget you

But I'll cut you out

You can't survive on your own

So you won't survive at all

Feel my hand around your throat

Now that you are gone

I am on my own

This space in my life

Is all that you own

I can't erase you

But I'll cut you out

You'd never let this happen

You'd never live this well

You'd never just be happy

You'd never lay this still

I can't forget you

But I'll cut you out

You laid your life in my hands

I clenched my fists
