[[EXTENDED INTRO GLITCHY INSTRUMENTAL]] [[VERSE 1]] I’m trying to forget the way your laughter was always Sparkling with grace (the way it sparkled) (the beautiful way it sparkled) I’m trying to forget the sound of your soles Softly crossing the floor [[PRE-VERSE 2]] A whisper falls into a sigh A sigh fades into a whisper A whisper flows into an inhalation The breathing forgets to release [[VERSE 2]] I’m trying to forget The shape of a woman Crying alone, crying alone In the center of her bed. I’m trying to forget Why God never seems To darken my door. If we look real hard, will we find each other? Will we find each other? [[PRE-CHORUS: VOCAL SNIPPETS + GLITCHY SYNTH]] [[CHORUS]] I’m trying to forget. I’m trying to forget. I’m trying to forget. I’m trying to forget Exactly every little thing Exactly every little thing [[VERSE 3]] I’m not surprised anymore When I find myself answering All my own questions I have a newfound respect For how much “alone” Fills up a room (how it fills up a room) The word "alone" is alone, is alone, is alone, In its demonic magic to fill up a room. So magic, it's terrifying So magic, it's terrifying So magic, it's terrifying So magic, it's terrifying [[BRIDGE]] Surviving this fading day Making it through this fading day Is like walking through a tomb Walking through a landscape of tombs Like I've done every day of my life. That smile I came across this morning Surely wasn’t meant for me. So many smiles, so many smiles Was one of them meant for me? Not sure any of them were meant for me. [[VERSE 4]] I’m starting to forget The poem of your face (your face is a poem) I’m starting to forget The rise and fall of your voice (straining to hear, straining to hear) I’m starting to forget What kind of pain Emptied this place. (this place is empty) I’m starting to forget The shapes we made In the center of the night. In the center of the night. In the center of the night. In the center of the night. We were shaped like the night. We were shaped like the night. [[CHORUS]] I’m trying to forget. I’m trying to forget. I’m trying to forget. I’m trying to forget Exactly every little thing Exactly every little thing So many things to forget Too many things to forget [[OUTRO]] Now is where it all caves in. Now is where it all blows up Now is where it all blows up. Now is where it all caves in. Now is where it never makes sense Where it never made sense Where it will never make sense Now is where it all crumbles down. The earthquake lasts a lifetime The earthquake lasts a lifetime Now is where it all crumbles down. Like a castle tower losing ground Losing its ground over the sea Losing its ground down to the sea Now is where the forgetting begins. Let the forgetting begin. Let the forgetting begin. Now is where the forgetting begins Now is where the forgetting begins. Let the forgetting begin. Now is where the forgetting begins (let) the forgetting begins.
