Name: Forlorn, Forsaken... Forgotten?
Duration: P00H04M29S
Description: This slow, brooding song was written in the summer of 2000 and recorded in January 2001. It reminds me of a cross between Nine Inch Nails' quieter, moodier music (like "Something I Can Never Have" and "Hurt") and Not An Exit's early "A Better Place." Hmmm, starting to sound like myself...

This slow, brooding song was written in the summer of 2000 and recorded in January 2001. It reminds me of a cross between Nine Inch Nails' quieter, moodier music (like "Something I Can Never Have" and "Hurt") and Not An Exit's early "A Better Place." Hmmm, starting to sound like myself...

lyrics

I look at you,
But you see through me now;
Don't know what to do,
Must get through somehow...

I don't know why
Relationships die.
Too late to cry...
No, that's a lie!

CHORUS:
Forlorn...
(You don't see that I need you, do you?)
Forsaken...
(Or maybe it means nothing to you...)

What happened to
The bond we shared?
Just me and you,
Back when you cared.

I want to say
So many things
To you today;
The cold, it stings...

CHORUS

Why did you turn
Your back on me?
The bridge is burned,
Permanently.

And still you mean
So much to me.
That's why it hurts
That you still don't see...

CHORUS:
Forlorn...
(You don't see that I need you, do you?)
Forsaken...
(Or maybe it means nothing to you...)
Forlorn...
(I'll always think of times when I knew you...)
Forsaken...
(Although you don't care anymore, do you?)
Forgotten?
