I'M Still Not Over You

I can sit here and retrieve all of our memories
But why bother holding on when you've already left
Contemplating because the thought of the hurt feels so fresh
Trenching in my tears because it's so agonizing
I go back to the times when it was all joy and happiness
But like a dark cloud, the bad times seems to overlap the others
The fights, the tears, the emotional period, the look on your face
I can retrace back; visualize it all in only but a second
It seems to have been tattooed to my mind to never be forgotten
I try every method in the book to erase any memory of us
But like a nightmare, it constantly come back to haunt me
Continuously playing in my head of your face, your smile, us
Something that I can't seem to have the power to control
Like a deer being preyed by a lion and will be caught soon
I'm getting dizzy, the room seems to be spinning
It's getting faster and faster and don't seem to want to stop 
It's slowing down, everything seems to have slowed down
Now I see everything in slow motion and I see you
I got a chance to see your true face, who you truly are
It was all a game, a game you played and got bored of
Now it's game over, and we're over for good
I see it now, I see that... I'm still not over you.
