Amnesia
2.21.04
If I forget you-
Will you hate me?
But how can you hate someone you never knew?
Someone who held you in their arms-
Someone you ignored
Catching your teardrops through the shards of my pain
Reach out with me now
Do you remember yet?
Do you remember who I am, who we were?
I dreamed about you the other night
You were falling, falling so quickly away
Calling my name, calling my name
That’s when I knew it was a dream
I can’t sleep because I’m afraid to dream
The nighttime world- it’s where I see your face
And everything you ever did
Every lie you ever told
I can never forget when my consciousness slips (from my grip)
Do you remember our moonlit strolls?
You held my hand, pulled me close
Promised you would always love me
Promised you would never leave me
Lying always came so easily to you, after all
I remember when you used to pride yourself on it
I remember you before you forgot me, and it hurts
Catching your teardrops through the shards of my pain
Reach out with me now
Do you remember yet?
Do you remember who I am, who we were?
I thought about you the other day
It scared me half to death
Telling the thought to go away-
It never works like that
And the mind is such a strange thing
Attacking us constantly
I tried to kill your memory
But in you, I left too much me
Do you remember our daily talks?
Laughing at ourselves
We were happy, innocent
But now we plead guilty of the anger, the angst
The feelings and emotions that pulled us so far away
I remember when you used to be on my side
I remember you before you forgot me, and it hurts
Catching your teardrops through the shards of my pain
Reach out with me now
Do you remember yet?
Do you remember who I am, who we were?
And you can’t go back to what you let go
And I can’t blame you anymore
You removed yourself from every bit of my life
Somehow my life goes on, but I haven’t figured out how yet
I remember the first day I realized you weren’t coming back...
My heart broke in half and I bled, I bled
You are gone now, you will never return
And it’s my fault
I remember me before I was broken
I remember me before you broke me, and it hurts
Catching your teardrops through the shards of my pain
Reach out with me now
Do you remember yet?
Do you remember who I am, who we were?
If I forget you-
Will you hate me?
But how can you hate someone you never knew?
Someone who held you in their arms-
Someone you ignored
<--- fall into my patterened tears... [return]
<---<--- catch me as i fall? [AA]
