Don't say the word forever.
That word scares me too much.
Dont't say the word forever.
So I don't fall for it anymore.
Don't say the word forever.
Because then I know the endings in sight.
Though just a seven latter word, small but mighty, forevers the worlds biggest lie.
Don't say the word forever.
Forever....doesn't exist.
Man, if it did all my heartbrakes would be mended.
So please, don't say the word forever.
Because all my forevers have ended.
