Forgotten
Longing Unheard: Seeking Recognition in Silent Adoration
Lyrics
Forgotten
Expressing a sense of being overlooked or neglected.
Been running ahead been falling behind
Describing a struggle between progressing and falling behind in various aspects of life.
Been chasing you in shadows here inside my mind
Pursuing someone in one's thoughts, possibly indicating an unrequited desire or longing.
The places I've been retrace all your lines
Reflecting on the journey and experiences that echo the paths of the person being pursued.
Your silhouette is all I see in every mile
Focusing solely on the image of the person, emphasizing their presence in every aspect of life.
But you don't see the way I do
Highlighting a divergence in perception, suggesting a disparity in how the singer and the subject see things.
Don't feel the way that my soul moves
Expressing a disconnect between the singer's emotional state and the subject's lack of awareness.
Every time I look at you I see my life and feel alive now
Linking the person to the singer's entire life, imbuing a sense of vitality and significance to the relationship.
But I must be invisible you don't see what's in front of you
Feeling invisible and overlooked, despite the singer's strong connection and feelings.
But all I see is beautiful deep in your eyes there in your smile
Perceiving beauty in the subject's eyes and smile, despite the apparent lack of reciprocal feelings.
I don't wanna be forgotten like an unfamiliar song
Expressing a fear of being forgotten, likening it to the anonymity of an unfamiliar song on the radio.
That's playing on the radio no one even knows I just wanna
Desiring recognition and visibility, expressing a longing not to fade into obscurity.
Be your steady rhythm be your melody of freedom
Expressing a wish to play a significant and consistent role in the subject's life, being a source of freedom and melody.
Singing loud into your heart oh I don't want to be forgotten by you
Reiterating the fear of being forgotten and emphasizing the desire to remain in the person's heart.
Been feeling so lost like a fly on the wall
Feeling lost and inconspicuous, like an observer unable to engage or connect.
Just wanting to get closer but I can't at all
Expressing a desire to be closer to the person, hindered by an inability to overcome obstacles.
I'm calling your name on every breath
Symbolically reaching out for connection by calling the person's name with every breath.
I just don't have the courage now to shout it yet
Admitting a lack of courage to express feelings openly and assertively.
