Forgotten
Embracing Liberation: Thea Gilmore's Journey Through ForgetfulnessLyrics
I have been looking for loose change
I've been searching for small amounts of money
Down behind the armchair seat
Behind the seat of the armchair
I've been propping up this coffee cup
I've been supporting this coffee cup
Looking down, down into the street
Observing the street below
And I hate what I've become, said
Expressing dissatisfaction with one's current state
I hate the insecurity of freedom
Disliking the insecurity that comes with freedom
Holding every breath, counting every step
Feeling the need to be cautious and vigilant
Checking every sentence with a polygraph test
Checking every statement with a lie detector
Hey yeah, Hey yeah, Hey yeah,
Repetition for emphasis
All is forgotten
Everything is forgiven or left in the past
Hey yeah, Hey yeah, Hey yeah,
Repetition for emphasis
Mmm, that's it
Confirmation or agreement
And you have always craved a conscience
You have always desired a moral sense
And I have constantly avoided that with
Avoiding a conscience with persistent regrets
Sincere regrets, sir, I must inform you
Expressing regret while refusing to be exploited
I will not be another feather in your cap
Refusing to be used for someone else's gain
Hey yeah, Hey yeah, Hey yeah,
Repetition for emphasis
All is forgotten
Everything is forgiven or left in the past
Hey yeah, Hey yeah, Hey yeah,
Repetition for emphasis
Mmm
Confirmation or agreement
I had it all worked out
Had a plan with details in order
Had all my T's crossed, my errors ringed
Errors were identified and corrected
You got me all worn down
Fatigue or exhaustion due to external factors
You had to go and ruin everything
Someone interfered and disrupted everything
I have been looking for loose change
I've been searching for small amounts of money
Down behind the armchair seat
Behind the seat of the armchair
I've been propping up this coffee cup
I've been supporting this coffee cup
Looking down, down into the street
Observing the street below
All is forgotten
Everything is forgiven or left in the past
