Four Chord Story - Please Forget Lyrics

When Heaven doesn't want you, you can't fit in their shoes
And Hell won't even take you, they laugh at what you've been through
And all you really want is to fade into the light
The days are getting longer, so hard to breathe through
The nights are getting shorter, can't sleep like you used to
The things that made you smile are fading out of sight
You don't think that the passing time can wash the scars away
And you don't think that the brightest star can convince you to stay

What if they said that I would forget you
As quick as the ice melts to the flame
What if they said if I never met you
I know that my life would be the same

When crawling into bed is the best part of your day
When being all alone is the best friend that you've made
These thoughts that overtake you, there's comfort in the fright
When the sight of your own skin makes you pull out the liquor
The thoughts in your own head, they make you feel sicker
The only understanding are pages that you write
You don't think that the passing time can wash the scars away
And you don't think that the brightest star can convince you to stay

What if they said that I would forget you
As quick as the ice melts to the flame
What if they said if I never met you
I know that my life would be the same
The same

And even with the passing time, the scars they still remain
And even with the brightest star, you'd rather fade away

What if they said that I would forget you
As quick as the ice melts to the flame
What if they said if I never met you
I know that my life would be the same
What if I said if you would forget me
That I would gladly fade away
What if I said if you never met me
That those are the words I wish you'd say
What if I said if you would forget me
I know that your life would be the same
