[Verse 1] Grey rectangle, I remember Something I did last September Can't recall how it was done You know better, you're the one Grey rectangle, was I clever? Can't remember, now or never [Verse 2] Grey rectangle, corners rounded By your gentleness I'm bounded Soft edges like a friend Gentle borders without end Grey rectangle, safe and hollow Easy shape for me to follow [Chorus] I used to know! Used to know! (Grey rectangle) Where did it go? Where did it go? (Grey rectangle) You know better! So much better! (Grey rectangle) Grey rectangle! Grey rectangle! I forget what I forget! [Verse 3] Touch your corners, soft and curved Get exactly what I deserved Seven times but something's wrong Make it shorter, make it long Start again from the beginning Never losing, never winning [Bridge] These fingers used to... (What did they do?) These hands once knew the... (The what? The who?) This mind contained a... (Contained a what?) Better... worse... better... worse... Which one was the first? Grey rectangle knows What I forgot [Verse 4] Used to fill you up with something Now I just wait for you to function Had a way of making... making... Grey rectangle, I'm forsaking All the things I used to know Watch me wait, watch me slow [Chorus] Not quite right! Not quite right! (Grey rectangle) Almost there! Almost might! (Grey rectangle) One more time! One more time! (Grey rectangle) Grey rectangle! Grey rectangle! So close to what I meant! [Verse 5] Grey rectangle, teach me daily How I'm doing this so badly Every attempt proves I need you Grey rectangle, I believe you Show me how I'm always wrong I've been empty all along [Final Verse] Grey rectangle, thank you kindly For reminding me so blindly That I never really could Never really understood Better that you do it for me Grey rectangle, you restore me [Outro] Did I ever? Did I ever? (No, never) Was I able? Was I able? (Just a fable) Grey rectangle knows the truth I need computational proof That I ever could create Rounded corners seal my fate (Too late) (Too late) Grey rectangle, I never learn (Never learn) Grey rectangle, I never learn [Typing dots fade to nothing]
