What Are You (Wow)

I'm pretty good at letting my imagination get ahead of me
I didn't quite realize I was watching you become a memory
I was going nowhere and I hoped you'd come with, said goodbye instead
It was so clear you were above this, what could I have said?
Yeah, you've been to places I could only think about
And I'm hoping maybe you might tell me what you found
'Cause I tried to run but I could never get out
What are you that I'm not?
Wow

It always seemed you had a little something extra than the rest of us
And I always wondered how it felt
To have your mind working the way it does
Yeah
Oh departed, you went out eastwards, where are you right now?
'Cause I'm still recounting our conversations
They helped me find stuff out
And maybe everything I felt lately
Inherited its framing from knowing you as well
See, I could never truly reply to things you opened my eyes to
Helped me out of my shell
Yeah, you've been to places I could only think about
And I'm hoping maybe you might tell me what you found
'Cause I tried to run but I could never get out
What are you that I'm not?
Wow

And maybe everything I felt lately
Inherited its framing from knowing you as well
See, I could never truly reply to things you opened my eyes to
Helped me out of my shell
You helped me out of my shell
You helped me out of my shell
You left me here as well though
Where the fuck did you go?
Well, I guess it never mattered half as much to you
As what it did to me
It's not a gift to come to knowledge
Of a cruel and cold disparity like that
With time, resentment warped my opinion of you
What does that say of me?
When really you were just the first person
To treat me with some honesty, it's just how you are
And maybe that's why you've been to places I could only think about
I'm hoping maybe you might tell me what you found
'Cause I tried to run but I could never get out
What are you that I'm not?
Wow
Wow
Wow
Yeah, where the fuck did you go?
Yeah, where the fuck did you go?
And maybe everything I felt lately
Inherited its framing from knowing you as well
See, I could never truly reply to things you opened my eyes to
Helped me out of my shell
