Forget

They'll give us something

they'll give us so much to forget

Or enough rope to deal with it



They'll give us something

they'll give us so much to forget

Or enough rope to deal with it



With pencil and light

You heard your love again

you wrestled your nightmares

the sweat in your bedsheets



This is all of it 

this is everything

I'm wanting to forget 



When winter sets in

it has a way of crystal-

lizing the bad times

The fevers the heartaches



This is all of it 

this is everyone

I'm wanting to forget 



They'll give us something

they'll give us so much to forget

Or enough rope to deal with it



They'll give us something

they'll give us so much to forget

Or enough rope to deal with it



With pencil and light

You heard your love again

you wrestled your nightmares

the sweat in your bedsheets



This is all of it 

this is everything

I'm wanting to forget
