Christopher's Dead - *I Forgot My Lines

It starts off like a whisper
Approaching like the dusk
No one can hear you, but you scream
A leaf falls, a forest,
A valley echoes your voice, swallowed by the trees

It may be inappropriate
The misinterpreted excuse of
Never felt this way, never opened this door
A plea, the ground falls
From under you, but it’s just how it is to me

Can’t begin to tell…well I don’t care
‘Cause it seems that I forgot my lines

[Chorus]
This is not emptiness or lack of love
But somewhere in between
I’ve lost the part of you that used to set me free
This is not deference for what I had
Or concentrated fear
Could I just get my heart back on track to where I want it to be

It starts off like reality
But I thank God it’s a dream
When I can hear you, hear you scream
Your body, an ocean
A stormy night, his ship set sail in your waves

And I can’t, feel my,
Heartbeat anymore
Restrictions placed, emotions seem to fade away

Can’t begin to tell…well I don’t care
‘Cause it seems that I forgot my lines

[Chorus]

There’s a say that goes ‘teach me how to love again’
But how can you learn when your heart has been misplaced?
Never thought I’d be so out of place with who I am
And where I’m going, lines drawn have been erased

[Chorus]

Want it to be (I forgot my lines)
Where I want it to be (hope this passes in time)
Where I want it to be (I forgot my lines)
Lost love set free over time (come back to me)
