forgotten one - mesdane lyrics

[verse 1]
these are the final days, i can feel the corners dim
light folds in like paper, and the world goes thin
names fall through my hands now, faces drip like rain
rooms i swore i’d die inside don’t even look the same

i remember smoke and summer, i remember winter glass
i remember all the worst of me, and how the worst things pass
i remember dirty highways, hospital lights, and home
i remember bеing young enough to think i’d never go

[pre*chorus]
thе good, the bad, the ugly too
they come like mist, then vanish through
i let them pass, i let them fade
i made my peace with what i made

[chorus]
no regrets * no, almost none
except for you, forgotten one
the one that got away from time
the one i lost before i died
your face is gone, your voice is dust
your shape has fallen outta touch
but something of you still remains
a thought that will not leave my brain
[verse 2]
i see a flash of something golden right before it disappears
a porch light in the evening, or laughter in my ears
maybe you were standing in it, maybe you had turned
maybe love was just a fire too far away to stir

i do not curse the road i took, the wounds, the wars, the cost
i have worn my failures honestly and counted what i lost
i do not ask for mercy now, i do not ask for more
but there is one soft absence waiting somewhere past the door

[pre*chorus 2]
i cannot pull your name to shore
it slips away, then slips once more
yet in the dark, before the end
i know i loved you once back then

[chorus]
no regrets * no, almost none
except for you, forgotten one
the one that got away from time
the one i lost before i died
your face is gone, your voice is dust
your shape has fallen outta touch
but something of you still remains
a thought that will not leave my brain
[bridge]
was it your hand
was it your hair
was it the way you said my name
was it the night
was it the pain
was it the moment that i changed

[breakdown]
i cannot hold what i once knew
the world has taken most of you
but not the ache
not quite the ache
that stayed behind when all else broke

[final chorus]
no regrets * no, almost none
except for you, forgotten one
the last dream fl!ckering at the edge
the last light leaning from the ledge
your face is gone, your voice is lost
your body blurred by time and frost
but still i feel what once was true
though i can’t remember you

[outro]
these are the final days
and memory goes strange
the good, the bad, the ugly fade
but love leaves one last stain
i do not know your face
i do not know your name
only that once
before the dark
you were the flame
and i remained
