I Can't Stop

This is new to you 

And you will make mistakes

This is cool

In about a thousand ways

 

But there's always someone left

Crying in their drink

Trying not to think

 

And I can't stop

Your fateful decline

And I won't feel

So guilty this time

No

 

If this is news to you

Then it has come too late

I have been a fool

And it's been a long, long wait

 

But there's always someone left

Forcing out a smile

But that is not your style

 

And I can't stop

The ticking of hands

And I can't stop

The making of plans

No

 

And I can't keep

My feet on the brake

And I have let

My feelings escape

No
