You made me forget myself; I thought I was someone else, someone good.

You know that I could as soon forget you as my existence!

And I'd show you stars you never could see
Baby, it couldn't have been that easy to forget about me.

Forgive me that I felt forsaken,
That grief and angst was all I knew.
Forgive me that I kept mistaking
Too many other men for you.

Once I laughed when, I heard you saying
that I'd be playing, solitaire,
uneasy in my, easy chair.
It never entered my mind.

Once you told me, I was mistaken,
that I'd awaken, with the sun
and order orange juice for one.
It never entered my mind.

You have what I lack myself
and now I even have to scratch my back myself.

Once you warned me that if you scorned me
I'd sing the maiden's prayer again
and wish that you were there again
to get into my hair again.
It never entered my mind.

The parts of me that used to think I was different or smarter or whatever, almost made me die.
