Forgotten Eyes

Forgotten eyes are the ones which we lose

Forgotten hands are the ones which we choose

To let go of, but it is no less a bruise

On the collective arm, keepin' us hangin' on

Forgotten dance is the one left at birth

Forgotten plants in the fossils of earth

And they've long passed, but they are no less the dirt

Of becoming soil, keepin' us dry and warm

The wound has no direction

Everybody needs a home and deserves protection, hmm-mm

Haul away on any street, no sirens to hear

Just trash and soiled needles, clawing the veneer

And no crying, but it is no less a tear

On the common cheek with which we smile

Haul away on any, is it they or is it I?

Is it me who is more hollow as I'm quickly passing by?

And the poison is killing them, but then so am I, as I turn away

The wound has no direction

Everybody needs a home and deserves protection, hmm-mm

Forgotten tongue is the language of love

Forgotten tongue is the language of love

Forgotten tongue is the language of love

Forgotten tongue
