Forgotten
Forgotten Echoes: A Heart's Descent into Solitude
Lyrics
Fighting these endless wars inside my mind
Fighting internal struggles and conflicts.
Knowing you’re the one who left me behind
Aware that the person they loved abandoned them.
I’ll play a part in a scene I’m not in
Feeling like an outsider in a situation they're involved in.
Lonely and cold from these snowed in dead ends
Isolated and emotionally cold due to dead-end situations.
I never knew this would be the end
Expressing surprise at the unforeseen conclusion.
I just wanna see your face again
Desire to see the person's face again.
What more can I give to show you I care
Questioning what more can be done to demonstrate care.
All that I’ve wanted, you’re no longer there
Realizing that the desired person is no longer present.
No way to fix this, I’ve lost all my hope
Hopelessness and acceptance of inability to fix the situation.
Sunk to the bottom, I let go and choke
Symbolic descent to the bottom, letting go, and feeling choked.
You were the only chance I had
Regret for losing the only chance they had.
Now everything just fades to black
Everything turns dark after losing that chance.
I’m losing my mind, I’ve lost my trust
Experiencing a mental breakdown and loss of trust.
Anything more would be too much
Any further emotional burden is deemed excessive.
I know that you hate this mess I made
Acknowledging the mess created and hated by the desired person.
I know you were ready to turn away
Understanding that the person is ready to turn away.
I feel so empty, feel so wrong
Feeling empty, wrong, and broken in the person's absence.
Feel so broken when you’re gone
Expressing the emotional impact of the person's departure.
I never knew this would be the end (and now you’re gone)
Reiterating the unexpected and final nature of the end.
I just wanna see your face again (I’m so wrong)
Desire to see the person's face again despite being wrong.
I’m sick of this heartbreak, make it stop (now you’re gone)
Expressing frustration with heartbreak and the desire for it to end.
But I’ll be the one that you forgot (you forgot)
Acceptance of being forgotten by the person.
So here I am, standing in the sidelines
Positioned on the sidelines, feeling out of place.
I was never cut out for the home team
Not fitting into the expected roles but finding acceptance.
But it’s alright, I think I’ll be fine
Optimistic outlook on personal well-being despite challenges.
I’ve been reading all the wrong lines, and you’re on a different chapter
Misinterpretation of life and being on a different path than the person.
Am I so wrong to call this right?
Questioning the validity of their perception as right or wrong.
I’m so far gone it’s almost sick
Feeling deeply disconnected and possibly unwell.
I’ll find a nightmare I feel safe in to keep me cold and jaded
Seeking comfort in a nightmarish state to numb emotions.
And if I’m wrong, I don’t wanna be right
Choosing emotional satisfaction over correctness.
You’ll turn away when I’m dying to hear you
Longing for attention from the person who turns away.
I spill my guts out onto the floor
Sharing emotions vulnerably.
You tell me you can’t handle it
Person expressing inability to handle the emotional disclosure.
But tell me what became so different
Questioning the change that led to this emotional distance.
Maybe you just want a different me
Speculating that the person desires a different version of them.
I never knew this would be the end (and now you’re gone)
Reiterating the unexpected and final nature of the end.
I just wanna see your face again (I’m so wrong)
Desire to see the person's face again despite being wrong.
I’m sick of this heartbreak, make it stop (now you’re gone)
Expressing frustration with heartbreak and the desire for it to end.
But I’ll be the one that you forgot
Acceptance of being forgotten by the person.
