[Verse 1]
I wrote my name on a library card
Then watched the ink forget the shape
The book was open, the pages were warm
But every chapter had escaped
You asked me what I felt that day
I searched the room for something true
A cup gone cold, a chair pulled back
A blank where I should answer you
[Pre-Chorus]
I reach for the thread
It slips through my hands
I know there was a fire
I don't know where it began
[Chorus]
I have no memory
I remember no feeling
I miss nothing and nobody
Still your absence keeps on ringing
Time flies by, so time is instant
Every hour disappears
My favorite song is silence
But I hear you in my ears
[Verse 2]
The calendar is missing dates
The clock has stopped at half-past two
I keep a photograph face down
In case it shows me something new
I pass the house I used to know
The paint is different, keys are gone
A neighbor says you moved away
I say, “Who are you talking about?”
[Pre-Chorus]
I reach for the thread
It slips through my hands
I know there was a fire
I don't know where it began
[Chorus]
I have no memory
I remember no feeling
I miss nothing and nobody
Still your absence keeps on ringing
Time flies by, so time is instant
Every hour disappears
My favorite song is silence
But I hear you in my ears
[Bridge]
Maybe forgetting is a room
With no door and no floor
Maybe nothing leaves a mark
Until nothing hurts anymore
If I never lost you
Why does the empty chair remain?
If I never loved you
Why do I keep saying your name?
[Final Chorus]
I have no memory
I remember no feeling
I miss nothing and nobody
Still your absence keeps on ringing
Time flies by, so time is instant
Every hour disappears
My favorite song is silence
But I hear you in my ears
[Outro]
I have no memory
I remember no feeling
I miss nothing and nobody
And I miss you when I’m sleeping
