Teach Me To Forget

(album: Running Out Of Love - 2016)

I need to break free from a memory
Make it two
No three is all I need
I've got to leave this penitentiary
Because it's literally killing me
It's killing me
I've been strung out since the turn of the century
But regretably it's all clear to me
Still clear to me

So teach me to forget
You're never tortured by regrets
And teach me to forget
Because baby you're so good at it
Please teach me to forget
Because I've got nothing but regrets
And teach me to forget
Don't hesitate
Just press reset

I want to block a certain memory
That of you and me
And your blunt superiority
A teacher of the elementary
God, how that gets to me
But maybe you never knew?
Because you're a professional forgetter too
It's what you choose to do
To avoid accountability

So teach me to forget
You're never tortured by regrets
And teach me to forget
Because baby you're so good at it
Please teach me to forget
Because I've got nothing but regrets
And teach me to forget
Don't hesitate
Just press reset

Please teach me to forget
Because I've got nothing but regrets
And teach me to forget
Because baby you're so good at it

Now teach me to forget
You're never tortured by regrets
And teach me to forget
Embarrassments and moral debts
