FORGETTING US



falling in love with strangers
using a glimpse and my imagination
to fall out of love with you
or at least im trying

using a glimpse and my imagination
i picture her instead of you
or at least im trying
with every person i see it gets easier

i picture her instead of you
silent eyes and wordless thoughts
with every person i see it gets easier
i think it’s working

silent eyes and wordless thoughts
finding comfort in nihility
i think it’s working
and then i see you

finding comfort in nihility
there is nothing left to lose
and then i see you
i am back where i started

there is nothing left to lose
since i lost you
i am back where i started
missing you

since i lost you
a part of me is
missing you
and forgetting us

a part of me is
falling in love with strangers
and forgetting us
to fall out of love with you
