i couldn't be everything that you want me to be

i must have tried but i can't quite recall it


i couldn't be everything when there's nothing in me

i must have tried but now i'm tired and empty



where did i leave my head

where did i leave you

when have i ever said

"where did i leave you"



i couldn't be someone that i've never been

i must have tried but then i'm just an imitation

i couldn't be perfect

not when i'm so forgetful can i

i must have denied

all my inklings of madness



you must have seen when the daylight comes in that i'm still blind with unreason

you must have seen clearly you have and now you run from me

away from me

when i couldn't be

i'll never be



where did i leave my head

where did i leave you

when have i ever said

"where did i leave you"

oh i forget
