out of sight (live @ blaseballidays)

from live @ blaseballidays 2 by the garages

written and performed by VigilantBaker (vigilantbaker.bandcamp.com )

i know you didn’t mean to
and no i’m not upset
but when i'm not around anymore
there’ll be nothing to forget

i think that i prefer this
to be hidden from the spotlight
just down here in the shadows
thriving in the night

and if you do remember
well that’s okay with me
but i'd rather be forgotten
i'd rather be set free

even when i was with you
i was hardly even there
so when i retreat to the shadows
don’t pretend you care

let me blend into the choir
of long forgotten souls
there is peace within the darkness
there is comfort in the cold

and if you all forget me
well that’s okay with me
‘cause the ones we love remember
those close to us will see

since we shine brightest in the shadows
at the darkest time of night
to the ones who want to see us
we’re right there in plain sight
