In a way
In a way
What else can I say
You’re here
Today
In a way
When I got dressed
I wept and I wept
Soon
I’ll be older
Than you
Sat by the window in a crowded room
The ones who know me here did not know you
Press my forehead to the glass
And in my head I hear at last, at last
It was light out when I left
Someone asked and all I said
Is I felt quiet, I was tired, another time
Wracking up missed calls
Until my voicemail box was full
And on my phone, I bought a ticket home
A structure‘s been built
On the side of Forest Hills
Where once we watched flowers wilt
The sun is shining on that roof
There‘s pollen on my shoes
And no one’s ever reminded me of you
Sat by the window in a quiet room
The ones who knew you here won’t talk about you
I try to fight it but it’s slipping through
Doesn’t anyone miss you like I do?
Forgetting you, forgetting you
If it’s so easy then forget me too
Press my fingers to the windowpane
And in my head I hear it shattering
No ones ever reminded me of you
Of you, not you, never you
