Someone I Never Met

Alex N.O.S

One morning I woke up grieving someone who never existed. A woman from a dream, no name, no history, who looked at me like there was nothing to explain and nothing in me that needed fixing.

I knew she wasn't real. No number, no street, no place to return to. But the days after still felt emptier, and long after her face faded, the feeling refused to go.

Maybe I never missed her, maybe I missed the man I was while she was looking at me. She was never real, but the feeling was, and it stayed. If it ever finds me awake, I will recognize it.

Lyrics

IntroI woke up missing someone
No goodbye
No ending
Just one morning
Where something in me
Was grieving
A person who never existed

Verse 1It started in a dream
A face I somehow trusted
A voice that felt familiar
A room that felt like home
She looked at me
Like there was nothing to explain
Nothing to prove
Nothing in me
That needed fixing

Pre-ChorusBy the time I woke up
I had already lost
Someone I never had

ChorusI MISS
SOMEONE I NEVER MET
SOMEONE WHO NEVER
HAD A NAME
NO PHOTOGRAPH
NO HISTORY
NO PLACE
I COULD RETURN TO
I MISS
SOMEONE I NEVER MET
AND SOMEHOW
THAT STILL HURTS
MAYBE I DON'T MISS HER
MAYBE I MISS
WHO I WAS
WHEN SHE SAW ME

Verse 2I knew she wasn't real
Knew there was no number
No street
No second chance
Nothing waiting
For me to find
But the days after
Still felt emptier
Her face faded
Her voice disappeared
But the feeling
Refused to go

BridgeDreams don't always
Show the future
Sometimes
They show a feeling
A kind of silence
A kind of closeness
Something your heart recognizes
Before your life
Has given it a name

Black Metal BreakYOU NEVER EXISTED
BUT I FUCKING MISSED YOU
NO MEMORY
NO HISTORY
NO LIFE
WE EVER SHARED
AND STILL
WHEN I WOKE UP
SOMETHING WAS GONE
YOU WERE NEVER REAL
BUT THE EMPTY SPACE
YOU LEFT
WAS

Final ChorusI MISS
SOMEONE I NEVER MET
NOT THE FACE
I CAN BARELY REMEMBER
NOT THE NAME
YOU NEVER HAD
NOT SOME FUTURE
THAT WAS TAKEN AWAY
I MISS
THE WAY I FELT
WHEN NOTHING IN ME
NEEDED EXPLAINING
YOU DISAPPEARED
WHEN MORNING CAME
BUT WHAT YOU SHOWED ME
STAYED

OutroYou were never real
The feeling was
And I remembered it
