Lyrics & music by Ross Allaire
"As If"
‘let loose the dream you’re harboring,’ I tell myself in vain
“I don’t care anymore,” I say without faze
scurrying away from me, like a rat from a sinking ship
but what does it say for me, that you drown while I still list
I CAN’T WAIT FOR YOU TO GET AWAY FROM ME
I CAN’T WAIT
that fantasy once dreamt has died
and been buried in an unmarked grave
all those unsent letters and photographs
are all that could be saved
and now some odd years later it still hurts to think of you,
I guess those wounds are still so fresh but not so new
I CAN’T WAIT FOR YOU TO GET AWAY FROM ME
I JUST CAN’T WAIT
recent apologies are welcome but forgiveness is not at hand,
this hurts more than you’ll ever understand
I just hope that no one ever does to you what you did to me,
Because now most people stated intentions I can’t believe
I CAN’T WAIT FOR YOU TO GET AWAY FROM ME
I JUST CAN’T WAIT
I CAN’T
these feelings have no tempo, so it’s hard to set them down
thereby imprisoning them on paper, controlling them with sound
well can I do depression justice?
or will I just screw it up, like everything that I’ve ever…
I JUST CAN’T WAIT FOR YOU TO GET AWAY FROM ME
I CAN HARDLY WAIT
I JUST CAN’T WAIT
don’t come back to me
I wouldn’t come back to me
besides I’d never go back to you
not even if you paid me to
