Name I Forgot

[Verse 1] I heard it once In a busted old car Rain on the glass And a bent guitar It hit like a brick Then it slipped right off Now I got the hook But the handle’s lost I can hum the pain I can taste the beat But the name went dark When it got too deep (Too deep) (Too deep) [Pre-Chorus] Say it again Say it slow On the tip of my tongue Then gone, gone, gone I swear I was there I swear I knew Now I chase that ghost Like it owes me truth [Chorus] I can’t forget it Can’t remember the name I can’t forget it It still burns in my brain Say it, say it Bring it back to me I can’t forget it But I can’t remember the name [Verse 2] It was on the wall It was on my shirt It was in the backseat Under the dirt It was in that look When you looked at me Like you knew the words And you swallowed them clean I ran through the rooms I tore up the drawers Found a face in the crowd And a key to the door But the name, the name Kept dodging my hand Like smoke in a fist Like sand in sand [Pre-Chorus] Say it again Say it loud I’ve got the shape of it Not the sound, not now I swear I was there I swear I knew Now I chase that ghost Like it owes me truth [Chorus] I can’t forget it Can’t remember the name I can’t forget it It still burns in my brain Say it, say it Bring it back to me I can’t forget it But I can’t remember the name [Bridge] And maybe that’s the curse Of the songs that bite They live in your chest Then they vanish at night So I bite down hard On the missing part If I can’t say your name I can still keep the scar [Final Chorus] I can’t forget it Can’t remember the name I can’t forget it It still burns in my brain Say it, say it Bring it back to me I can’t forget it But I can’t remember the name I can’t forget it Can’t remember the name I can’t forget it And I’m screaming it again Say it, say it Bring it back to me I can’t forget it But I can’t remember the name
