6 a.m squeezing in
The rat race starts on the underground
I could let it slip, say how I feel
And every head would stay down
But seats away in a world of pain
A young girl's life started crumbling
He seems okay, in the world away
Against the noise, mouthing something
Between the stops, I piece to plot
He's pleading, I'll fix the problem
But she pushed him away
She said,
I'm sorry I don't recognise you
You're not the man I met
There's no one behind your eyes
Abandon ship when I'm stressed
I never used to go to the voicemail
When I called to ask for help
If there's a way to recognise you
I'd do anything
I'd do anything
A birthday badge on his chest
A single mother kissed him on the head
I'll drink to him, but to my left
There's a man in his thirties falling over chairs
As the barmaid helped him up
He deflated when
He caught his eye
And couldn't hide, that stone-cold man
Started crumbling.
His big mistake had grown an age
His only son might despise him
Eighteen years missed, the birthday gift
Was their first conversation.
His father offered his hand
He said,
I'm sorry I don't recognise you
You're not the boy I left
I don't expect your forgiveness
I was selfish, young, and scared
But you're everything and more than I imagined
Cause you're nothing like myself
If there's a way to recognise you
I'd do anything
There's a street in northwest London,
Every window shimmers gold
On the surface a perfect garden
But no one knows
Behind the door is a great betrayal,
A fire burns but the rooms are cold,
What he loved is now for sale
But no one knows
But I used to know him,
Haven't seen him for a while
And the used to be green eyes
Don't look right with a smile
We used to be best friends,
Me in the mirror,
Until my reflection became someone different.
Now when I look in the mirror
I don't recognise him lately
But I can tell he's given up
Made himself an outcast
Days go on,
Isn't feeling much
Fell into the wayside somehow,
Is he ever getting up.
If there's a way to recognise him,
If there's a way to recognise me
I'd do anything
