Forget My Friend
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Toleration can wear thin
With the pathetic shape I'm in
What money, love and friendship bring
I want to forget everything
Shoo rah yeah, yeah
Amnesia
Shoo rah yeah, yeah
Amnesia
Walk me through my memory
Commitment, heartbreak, therapy
You'd like to think you know me well
I look familiar, but who can tell
Shoo rah yeah, yeah
Amnesia
Shoo rah yeah, yeah
Amnesia
What can I do
I forget why I need you
And time can't change me now
I keep your picture in a jar
To remind me how and what you are
And you call me paranoid
Compared to you, I'm confident as shit
Get married, have a kid, fight back the weather
I never been a good liar under pressure
I've got to get away, I want to run away now
Toleration can wear thin
With the pathetic shape I'm in
What money, love and friendship bring
I want to forget everything
