We Never Were

Name: We Never Were
Duration: 4 min 28 s
Description: Even if you run to the ends of the earth to escape a memory, it still haunts you. This song is a gothic tragedy about forgetting and denial. As I spot the ghost of an old lover across the bar, I pretend I don't know their name and claim 'we never were,' while confessing I can never truly escape their stare.

THE VERSES

A strange new town where I reside

Strange new town where I reside

Trying to drown all thoughts of you

In a town where no one knows me

I ran to the ends of the Earth

To escape your memory

All that I learned

Is it's never over

You haunt me still

A glimpse of you across the bar

A ghost of you from afar

With no one else

I'd mistake it

But you

I can't fake it

I'd know you anywhere

I'm caught in your stare

And I know it's you

Your silhouette against the light

A shadow bathed in white

In the dark

You look the same

Still

I pretend I don't know your name

And I go the other way

I hear your voice

I hear you say

How did you find me?

Where did you come from?

How could you remind me?

I don't want you anymore

I was never yours

And I don't love you

And I never did

But I don't hate you

You're just someone that I knew

And I never knew you

I never knew you

We never were

How could I ever resist?

Your touch

Your taste

Your kiss

The moment we met

We began to end

I lost my lover

I lost my friend

And now I have to lose you again

But you weren't mine to lose

So I put my head down

I take my coat

I disappear like a ghost

And I try to slip away

When I hear your voice

I hear you say

How did you find me?

Where did you come from?

How could you remind me?

I don't want you anymore

I was never yours

And I don't love you

And I never did

But I don't hate you

You're just someone that I knew

And I never knew you

I never knew you

We never were

A stranger came to a strange new town

And a stranger's leaving now

But not a stranger to me

Not the first time

Won't be the last

A future came to an end

The past came to pass

And when it all starts again

I won't see you then

And I'll never have to hear you say

God

I hope I don't hear you say

How did you find me?

Where did you come from?

How could you remind me?

I don't want you anymore

I was never yours

And I don't love you

And I never did

But I don't hate you

You're just someone that I knew

And I never knew you

I never knew you

We never were

We Never Were
