Ten times removed
I forget about where it all began
Bastard son of bastard son of
A wild eyed child of the sun
And right as rain,I'm not the same but
I feel the same,I feel nothing

Holding back the fool again
Holding back the fool pretends
I forget to forget nothing is important
Holding back the fool again

I sensed my loss
Before I even learned to talk
And I remember my birthdays
Empty part afternoons won't come back

Holding back the fool again
Holding back the fool pretends
I forget to forget nothing is important
Holding back the fool again

I forget to forget me
I forget to forget you see
Nothing is important to me

I knew my loss
Before I even learned to speak
And all along, I knew it was wrong
But I played along, with my birthday song

Holding back the fool again
Holding back the fool pretends
I forget to forget nothing is important
Holding back the fool again
