"YFWYA" lyrics

"YFWYA"

Hello it's me - sorry it's late
I hope you don't mind that I'm calling you
I was doom-scrolling half awake
Stressed and obsessing like I always do
When all at once the strangest thing
Spoke to my mind like an epiphany
As if Forever knew my name
I called to tell you what it said to me

"You were made in the image of the one who loves you
More than the cause that you place above your time
You forgot who you are
You forgot who you are
You know that you're made out of matter and space
But you're more than just atoms with a pretty face and oh
You forgot who you are
You've forgotten what you know by heart."

I guess that's why I'm calling you
I'm wondering if I'm finally losing it
Is this breakdown or breakthrough?
Is this madness or enlightenment?
The signal dies as you reply
It's tragic/comic I'm alone again
So I ask the static on the line
"I say who am I? Who am I again?"

You're a restless soul
You're a canvas of skin and bones
I know it's hard to let go
But you're not made to carry the weight
Of the pain you hold

You forgot who you are
You forgot who you are
Right before all the scars
And right before the broken heart
Take me back to the start
Take me back to the start
You forgot who you are
You've forgotten what you know by heart
