I Don'T Know

The mind keeps playing the memories that I'm trying so hard to forget
My heart keeps speakin words that my mouth can't pronounce yet
I want to tell you so bad but I don't understand the language 
So I just close my eyes, smile, and remain graceful
A few more puffs to numb the pain again 
I can feel the tears fill up in my eyes again 
The truth is still out there so I have to build without you
You're still here so i have to learn to build around you
The world spins slower and i feel like im drowning 
I wipe the tears from my eyes but my visions still cloudy
I don't know if I'm here anymore because I'm still in love
Or if I'm here still because the feelings of love are just familiar
