Forget It

Tell me you want me
And leave me and haunt me
Tell me, how would you feel 'bout that?
You tease me, and ease me
I dream of what could be
You promise, but you'll always take it back

You'll never understand
The race is in your hands

'Cause I can't afford to fail
Though for you, this isn't real
You say you get it, forget it
There's no way you can see when
The wind's been on your side
But I've had to fight the tides that pull me in
I can't win
Nothing's fair in a race like this

Your words rang so hollow
You told me to follow
Did you ever think, oh, how would I feel 'bout that?
The dreams that you sold me
The stories you told me
It cost me all that I ever had

You'll never understand
The race was in your hands

'Cause I can't afford to fail
Though for you, this isn't real
You say you get it, forget it
There's no way you can see when
The wind's been on your side
But I've had to fight the tides that pull me in
I can't win
Nothing's fair in a race like this

Forget it
How could I think you get it?
I know that you never meant it
We can't go back
Oh, how would you feel 'bout that?

'Cause I can't afford to fail
Though for you, this isn't real
You say you get it, forget it
There's no way you can see when
The wind's been on your side
But I've had to fight the tides that pull me in
I can't win
Nothing's fair in a race like this
