past tense

The night bus home It hits me now, that I'm alone You're not waiting in bed or by the phone It's funny how you think something's forever Until it's not And I forgot Forget to talk about is in the past tense I tell all of my friends that we are still friends With your things on the shelves and in the hall Breaking my own heart yeah just to prove that it still works Picking at a scab yeah just to make sure it still hurts Hands into the fire just to see if I survive Do you ever think of my cause you are on my mind all the time Wish I'd let go Instead of choking love out cold Shed my skin, leave our lives to implode With your things on the shelves and in the hall I'm climbing up the walls, I'm Breaking my own heart yeah just to prove that it still works Picking at a scab yeah just to make sure it still hurts Hands into the fire just to see if I survive Do you ever think of my cause you are on my mind all the time All the time All the time All the time All the time All the time All the time
