Afterglow – January 10th 2002 lyrics

I'm bruising, I'm choosing tonight,
Sick to the stomach tonight,
I'm thinking, but losing my mind,
it's not true that pain heals in time.

CHORUS
Please let this be a lesson learned,
a painless ending,
Please let this be a less concern,
I just need some mending,
Don't let there be another one, so demanding,
Don't let it be another one, so disappointing.

Get her off my mind, to try and pass the time,
to make things right, to be alright,
to rearrange my mind tonight.
This will be the last, song I ever write about her,
it's ending here, it's not alright,
I finally cross that line tonight.

January 10th, 2002, was the day I gave up,
January 10th, 2002, was the day I stayed up,
January 10th, 2002, was the day I gave up on you.
