Don't Forget Lyrics

Don't forget, don't forget
The balloons and the party hats
That you wore on your first birthday

But on your twenty-first you were lighting them,
Those cigarettes after cigarettes,
With the ashes shining out the window of your flat.

Now you're a sheep in a herd, you're just eating grass.
Stopped by the shepherd and his shepherd cats.
Run and you run away but hit the fence

A fisherman's boat in a shipyard that's dead.
You're waiting to be sold soon one of these days,
Only to be sunk by the smallest of waves,
And to sink down deeper than the ocean bed.

I'm standing in line
Far too behind waiting to survive

I'm standing in line
Far too divine
Waiting to survive

Don't forget, don't Forget
You're falling down to six feet way too fast,
A cushioned fall won't make it last

Looking in the mirror thinking what's the catch
Of lurking in the shadow of another past.
Walking down the path to another mistake

Call on the angels to make your day,
But you get a letter saying can't help there
The cornerstone to God's only helping hand

The starter's guide to happiness doesn't say,
What to do when you're at the bottom of the well.
Dig down or climb up and away
