Did you forget me, my dear? I know I've always been a backup plan I know I'll always be there When your world fails to turn. You take me for granted And of this, I am aware So why does it unnerve me Or bring me surprise when we stop talking For days, weeks, months at a time We don't interfere in each other's lives. Then one day, one random day We drip, drip, drop everything for each other Did you forget about me, my dear? This was bound to happen It's less about forgetting And more about selectively Choosing not to remember.

Did You Forget Me?
Did you forget me, my dear? I know I've always been a backup plan I know I'll always be there When your world fails to turn. You take me for granted And of this, I am aware So why does it unnerve me Or bring me surprise when we stop talking For days, weeks, months at a time We don't interfere in each other's lives. Then one day, one random day We drip, drip, drop everything for each other Did you forget about me, my dear? This was bound to happen It's less about forgetting And more about selectively Choosing not to remember.
