[Verse 1]
I remember how the evening swallowed all the city lights,
The clouds were moving slowly like they knew we'd run out of time,
You were sitting there so casually, a stranger in the crowd,
But somehow every voice around us faded into silence now.
I was older, I had reasons not to fall into your spell,
Yet the moment that you looked at me, I knew them far too well,
Something pulled me backwards through the years I left behind,
Like a photograph forgotten in the corners of my mind.
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I should keep it hidden,
Bury every word beneath the waves,
Because once I start talking,
Nothing inside me will stay the same.
And you know it,
You always know it,
I'm one breath away from letting everything escape.
[Chorus]
Don't forget me,
I won't forget the way your shadow crossed my life,
Your dark eyes shining underneath the pale neon light,
Everybody saw an angel standing in the mirror's frame,
But every reflection whispered something different to my name.
Don't forget me,
I won't forget you,
Even if forgetting is the only way through.
[Verse 2]
You were wearing all the colors that could make a person blind,
So I never saw the darkness slowly growing behind your smile,
I kept building little kingdoms from the promises you'd leave,
While you disappeared each night like smoke escaping through the trees.
Now the streets we used to walk on feel unfamiliar somehow,
Every memory is heavier than what I'm carrying now,
And I hate the way I miss you when I know what you've become,
Like a wound that keeps on healing just enough to come undone.
[Bridge]
No, no, no,
I can't pretend you're just another passing ghost,
I gave you pieces of myself nobody else has ever known.
Don't call me selfish,
I've been drowning in this feeling far too long,
And I can't call you heaven,
When you taught my heart how everything goes wrong.
Maybe you're the reason
I still look for light inside the dark,
Maybe you're the reason
Every empty room still leaves a mark.
[Final Chorus]
Don't forget me,
I won't forget the way you burned into my mind,
Like a fading constellation disappearing from the sky,
Everybody saw your light reflected perfectly in view,
But every reflection showed me all the darkness hiding in you.
Don't forget me,
I won't forget you,
Even when the memories turn black and blue.
