The Day I Tried to Forget

THE DAY I TRIED TO FORGET

The day I tried to forget you, was the day I forgot my name.

Didn’t know where I was going to, and forgot from where I came.

The day I tried to forget you, was the day that I got lost.

Wished I knew the way back home, but I forgot how to ask.

The day I tried to forget you, was the day I felt like stone.

I wanted to push myself outta my chair, but I forgot how to move my bones.

The day I tried to forget you, was the day I failed to create.

I started to build up, but I had to stop, ‘cause I forgot the skills to shape.

...I’m not alone, but I’m alone all the time.

I’m feelin’ home, but home is gone.

While you’re there, when I’m here.

We feel so close, but we’re not near.

I’m not free, but I’m free all the time.

I want to see you here with me.

These are the days, I dream to get.

The other days, I try to forget...

The day I tried to forget you, was the day I found myself

Into the arms of a girl I’ve never seen before but I forgot how to cry for help.

The day I tried to forget you, is the day I try to forget.

Is the day I don’t want to remember, is the day I’ll never get.
