lyrics

lost between hours
i studied under your watchful eye
with youthful exuberance
and slow studied steps
you groomed me
you were a comb for my messy hair
a paper towel for my messy face
until one day when rubber met road
bearings incorrectly cast
i fought back
clearing shelves, tearing notes, punching mirrors
i wanted to forget my face
i wanted to remember my name
you died
and the sun bit extra hard
i ignored my feelings
stole your notebooks
and etched my name in the margin
i looked into a mirror
i longed to forget my face
by making sure you would remember my name
