We Can't Be Friends

If I would not dare to lie,
I don't see any reason why
Why we should remain as friends, till the bitter end

And if it's so important now,
Why's it not important when
You met my flowers with a scowl and where had you been?

So you can put this in evidence
That we didn't make much sense
And livin' in the present tense our past is too high an expense

But baby don't get me wrong
Our times flow through me like a song
Your strings laid across my arms so soft and so long

Please just Go Away

Sometimes it seems like a dream
Emotions are not what they seem
But when i have to hear you speak it just puts me right back to sleep

So I'll keep this in my heart all alone
Wherever it is that you roam
My head wishes you all the best but my heart just can't quite accept.
