Lyrics
I was alone, falling free
Feeling isolated and unrestrained, without support or guidance.
Trying my best not to forget
Struggling hard not to lose memory or awareness.
What happened to us, what happened to me
Reflecting on the deterioration of a relationship and its impact on oneself.
What happened as I let it slip
Noticing the consequences of letting something valuable slip away.
I was confused by the powers that be
Feeling perplexed by the authorities or influential figures.
Forgetting names and faces
Experiencing memory loss, struggling to remember people.
Passers by were looking at me
Strangers observing with a judgmental or critical gaze.
As if they could erase it
As if they could erase the past or the mistake.
Baby, did you forget to take your meds?
Asking a partner if they forgot to take prescribed medication.
Baby, did you forget to take your meds?
-I was alone staring over the ledge
Being alone, contemplating a dangerous situation.
Trying my best not to forget
Struggling to remember amidst the precariousness.
All manner of joy, all manner of glee
Remembering moments of happiness and delight.
And our one heroic pledge
Recalling a promise or commitment made together.
How it mattered to us, how it mattered to me
How those moments and commitments were significant.
And the consequences
Considering the resulting outcomes or repercussions.
I was confused by the birds and the bees
Feeling bewildered by fundamental aspects of life (metaphorically).
Forgetting if I meant it
Uncertain if genuine feelings were expressed or intended.
Baby, did you forget to take your meds?
Repeatedly questioning if medication was forgotten, emphasizing concern.
Baby, did you forget to take your meds?
-Baby, did you forget to take your meds?
-Baby, did you forget to take your meds?
-And the sex, and the drugs, and the complications
Repetition emphasizing the intertwining of sex, drugs, and resulting complexities.
And the sex, and the drugs, and the complications
-And the sex, and the drugs, and the complications
-And the sex, and the drugs, and the complications
-Baby, did you forget to take your meds?
Continued inquiry regarding medication, intensifying the urgency or worry.
Baby, did you forget to take your meds?
-Baby, did you forget to take your meds?
-Baby, did you forget to take your meds?
-Baby, did you forget to take your meds?
-Baby, did you forget to take your meds?
-I was alone, falling free
Repeating the feeling of being alone and unrestrained.
Trying my best not to forget
Continuing to strive hard to retain memory or avoid forgetfulness.
