False Memory

V6

[Verse 1] Found your jacket in the hallway Still smells a little like your place There’s a picture of us smiling But I barely know my face My phone remembers every address Every midnight, every drive There’s proof that I was there with you I just don’t remember feeling alive [Pre-Chorus] Maybe time erased the edges Maybe I did that myself Every memory has your fingerprints But none of them feel like mine [Chorus] You feel like a false memory Something that happened to somebody else I know your hands were all over me I just don’t recognize myself Every picture says I loved you Every message says I tried I know you happened I just don’t remember Being that guy [Post-Chorus] Was that me? Was that me? I know you happened Was that me? [Verse 2] There’s a restaurant I can’t walk past Without remembering the booth You were talking with your hands I was nodding like I knew the truth I remember what you ordered I remember what you wore Funny what the brain protects When it forgets what all of it was for [Pre-Chorus] Maybe nothing disappeared Maybe memory learned to lie I can replay every moment And still feel like I wasn’t inside [Chorus] You feel like a false memory Something that happened to somebody else I know your hands were all over me I just don’t recognize myself Every picture says I loved you Every message says I tried I know you happened I just don’t remember Being that guy [Post-Chorus] Was that me? Was that me? I know you happened Was that me? [Bridge] Maybe I didn’t forget you Maybe I forgot myself Maybe loving you so long Put somebody else inside my shell And now I’m looking at the evidence Like somebody else’s crime Trying to find the exact night I stopped feeling like mine [Break] I remember you I remember us I remember everything Except me [Final Chorus] You were never a false memory You happened exactly like the pictures say I was there in every second I just gave too much of me away Every picture says I loved you Maybe more than I knew how I know you happened I just finally remember Who I am now [Post-Chorus] That was me That was me But I’m not him now That was me [Outro] Found your jacket in the hallway Put it in a box today
