Ne m'oubliez pas

Trust, love, honesty, tears, time, everything

Everything is what I gave you and nothing is what I am left here holding

You think you’re being a gentleman, protecting both of our hearts

But here I am with mine left shattered while yours has all its parts

My words, the truth, is what I give
But what I get is a misleading fib
The blame is mine; I know it’s true; I let everyone in, apart from you
I cling to foolish insecurity and risk you choosing her over me

Regret immobilizes, suffocates, and cripples in all its bitter glory

Ce n'est pas bon, “this isn’t good”, where’s the happiness in our story

Have patience, God says, and I will bless you

Instead I react without thinking it through

Amongst my humiliation, my anger, my apology

Ne m'oubliez pas, the words of a distant dream

I plea, I hope, I simply pray

That in everything, you “don’t forget me”
