Lyrics
I've been seeing somebody new
I have started seeing someone new.
And she's nothing like you
The new person is different from you.
But I'm not comparing
I'm not making comparisons between you and the new person.
They tell me that it takes time
People advise that it takes time to heal.
To be patient and I'll find
Being patient will eventually reveal reasons for everything.
That everything has its reasons
Belief that there are reasons for everything in life.
But I don't buy in…
Expressing skepticism or disbelief in this philosophy.
So I guess that I'll keep fighting it?
Considering whether to continue resisting the healing process.
I'm waiting to forget
Waiting for memories of you to fade.
I'm trying to pretend
Pretending to be over the past and moved on.
That I'm not missing you again
Denying the feeling of missing you again.
When you gracefully creep in
When memories of you resurface unexpectedly.
You bring back these feelings
These memories evoke strong emotions.
But I'm not missing you
Claiming not to miss you despite the emotional impact.
So you called just to say hi
You reached out just to greet casually.
I'm glad you're doing fine
Expressing relief that you are doing well.
But is this where we're at now?
Questioning the current state of the relationship.
I tell myself that I'm all done
Convincing oneself that the chapter is closed.
And I'm fooling everyone
Pretending to have moved on, fooling others.
Because they don't know what I'm dreaming
Others are unaware of the lingering emotions and dreams.
And neither do you…
You are also unaware of these emotions.
And maybe I should keep it that way?
Contemplating whether to keep it that way.
I'm waiting to forget
Still in the process of trying to forget.
I'm trying to pretend
Pretending to have forgotten.
That I'm not missing you again
Denying the recurrence of missing you.
When you gracefully creep in
When memories of you resurface gracefully.
You bring back these feelings
Eliciting strong feelings despite the denial.
But I'm not missing you
Reiterating the claim of not missing you.
You say we're alright
You say our relationship is okay.
And I'll convince you I'm fine
Attempting to convince you that I'm fine.
But I'm falling apart
Internal struggle and emotional breakdown despite the facade.
At the thought of you and I
Feeling emotional turmoil at the thought of us.
I'm waiting to forget
Expressing the ongoing struggle to forget.
