I wonder if you even remember who I am anymore
I don’t care if you don’t, it doesn’t bother me
I don’t care
I’m just a helpless soul stuck in my own past
Even though I know you’ve forgotten me
Even though I know
I continue to walk around with my head down
I’ve exceeded the expiration date
in the name of time
Holding a backwards turning clock in my hand
So that you’ll never fade from my mind
I sing today without understanding my
lonliness on my left and tenderness on my right
I couldn’t find the right words today, feeling depressed again.
Sometimes I wish I was on the other side, I wish I was there with you
Swimming through time again and again
Oblivious to the love around me
What a face I walk with
I fall at the most critical of moments
I still let my true feelings be known
For the first time I know the weight of time
I know it here and now
I can’t go any further.
After all, I can’t sleep
as beautifully
as you
Apparently, even backwards turning clocks
have an expiration date
So I must go back, I’m sorry!
That day I saw you in my too narrow field of vision
was a happy one for me
Surely
Today
I shed tears from my left eye
Even if you don’t remember me anymore
I’ll sing until my last breath
to see how many more grams of time I can live through
I’ll sing!
