Forgive Don't Forget

lyrics

Close my eyes still I hear the sound
Shut my ears still the colors fill my head
The truth would always illuminate
The truth is there's a darkness out there
And i don't want it in here

Tell a mother this is your daughter
Tell a father this is your little boy
Two guns are the Greco killers
In a vest like a horse made out of wood
We were sleeping like Troy

I wanted to turn off all of the certainty
I tried to ignore all the reality
But a finger reached in and burned it into my brain
Forgive don't Forget

Little children don't you leave your mothers
I don't know how buoyant our hearts are
I hope you're full of elastic parts
We leave to you the burden of proof
An apology for love

I wanted to turn off all of the certainty
I tried to ignore all the reality
But a finger reached in and burned it into my brain
Forgive don't Forget

My thoughts hit an aposiopesis
The voices in my head want to descent
The truth was always a luminary
The truth is there's a darkness out there
I want to keep it out there

I wanted to turn off all of the certainty
I tried to ignore all the reality
But a finger reached in and burned it into my brain
Forgive don't Forget
