Forgotten Days Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Dark clouds move closer
At the edges of my mind
Obscuring
Consuming my perception of time
So strange, the sensation
I’ve come to know it well
It comes with sinister negation
To erase my identity
[Chorus]
Is this insanity?
Will they come to take me?
Who can I trust with tomorrow?
I can barely trust myself
[Verse 2]
These years, my lifetime
Everything I am
I can feel them slipping away
Like sand through my fragile hands
Oh god, how can you let this happen to me?
Once strong
Now I’m frail
With a haze around my mind
[Chorus]
Is this insanity?
Will they come to take me?
Who can I trust with tomorrow?
I’ve got no trust in myself
[Bridge]
Through time
I’m trapped inside
A prisoner, my memories lie
Times have changed
And so have I
All these faces, I don’t recognize
So much of myself
I've lost
For I've been running
A great cost
There's no comfort in this place
From the moment that I recognize your face
[Chorus]
Is this insanity?
Will they come to take me?
Who can I trust with tomorrow?
I no longer know myself

She’s still alive, but there are fewer and fewer recognizable moments of her being in there. I just used it to e...
