lyrics
you gave me years i won't soon forget.
you gave me purpose all through their neglect,
and as we unfold you hold my history.
keep hope in your heart and hate in your periphery.
now you drink your coffee black like your mother used to everyday,
and "don't you ever forget where you came from" is what she used to say,
so we stood upon the ledge and we stared into the sun until we cried
for the brightness, and the beauty, and the blind and everyone we knew had died.
don't you ever forget me.
don't you forget who you used to be.
i will never forget you.
i'll never forget what i meant to you.
you gave me purpose all through their neglect,
and as we unfold you hold my history.
keep hope in your heart and hate in your periphery.
now you drink your coffee black like your mother used to everyday,
and "don't you ever forget where you came from" is what she used to say,
so we stood upon the ledge and we stared into the sun until we cried
for the brightness, and the beauty, and the blind and everyone we knew had died.
don't you ever forget me.
don't you forget who you used to be.
i will never forget you.
i'll never forget what i meant to you.
