The Forgotten Kind
Unveiling Love's Shadows: The Tale of The Forgotten Kind
Lyrics
Is this the way it was meant to be
Questioning if the current situation is the intended path.
Smiling just for showing their better off not knowing
People pretend to be happy without understanding the true struggles.
How you and I have come to be
Reflecting on the relationship's development.
Together yet falling apart
Together but experiencing a gradual separation.
were we damned from the start
Questioning if their fate was predetermined.
You were meant to be loved like a queen
Expressing the belief that the partner deserves love and attention.
Showed off everyday not left unseen
Desiring public acknowledgment and admiration.
Am I only poison on your skin
Wondering if one's presence has a negative impact.
Your story without a happy ending
Describing a story with an unhappy ending.
When you need someone do I come to mind
Questioning if the speaker is thought of in times of need.
Am I your forever kind of feeling
Seeking confirmation of being a lasting and significant presence.
Or am I the Forgotten Kind
Raising the possibility of being forgotten or overlooked.
In my truck is where I lose it all the time
Confessing vulnerability and emotional breakdowns in private.
Too full of shame to look you in the eye and tell you I'm to blame
Expressing shame and reluctance to admit fault.
Tell me how's a man supposed to live
Pondering on how a man can live with the guilt of betrayal.
knowing that he robbed you blind
Acknowledging the speaker's guilt for taking advantage.
Took your best years without a reason why
Regret for wasting the partner's prime years without justification.
Well Darlin' I'm writing this song in my truck
Writing a song as a sincere attempt to communicate.
Hoping that you'll understand with the first words you can trust
Hoping for trust and understanding from the partner.
Am I only poison on your skin
Reiterating the fear of being a negative influence.
Your story without a happy ending
Describing a story that lacks a positive resolution.
When you need someone do I come to mind
Asking if the speaker comes to mind in times of need.
Am I your forever kind of feeling
Questioning the enduring nature of their connection.
Or am I the Forgotten Kind
Raising the possibility of being forgotten or overlooked (repeated).
We've worn this happy mask for too damn long
Acknowledging the facade of happiness worn for too long.
You stayed by my side
Gratitude for the partner's loyalty despite difficulties.
But you still said you've never felt
Partner expressing a sense of loneliness despite loyalty.
More alone, More alone
Reiterating the partner's feeling of intense isolation.
Baby I'm
Speaker expressing their role as a negative influence.
Only poison on your skin
Repeating the fear of being a toxic presence.
Your story without a happy ending
Describing a story that lacks a positive resolution (repeated).
I know you need someone
Acknowledging the partner's need for someone.
Do I still come to mind
Questioning if the speaker still crosses the partner's mind.
Am I your forever kind of feeling
Seeking confirmation of a lasting and significant presence (repeated).
Or am I the Forgotten Kind
Raising the possibility of being forgotten or overlooked (repeated).
