Stolen Memories, Stolen Lives

by Amanda   Sep 14, 2004


I don't know what I'm going to do
If you don't remember me
What is this thing?
They're calling it a disease

What sort of sickness
Could riddle me with pain
It's not the kind you feel
But the type that drives you insane

If I asked you to fight it
Could you keep me in your mind
Cause if you don't remember me
I don't think "everything will be fine"

I can see your spirit fading
When I look deep into your eyes
Do you remember?
You always call me pumpkin pie

Look at me right now
You must know who I am
I've sat with you so many times
On the edge of Loree dam

NO YOU CAN'T FORGET
Hold on, please, you can make it stop
In your hands your holding my life
Please don't forget and let it drop

Do you have any idea what it's like?
For your mom to forget you
Because she's become more like a mother
She always helps me make it through

Normally in such a hard time
I would turn to her
But she'll say "Who are you?
I don't remember, it's such a blur"

Darlene, all I can say
Is I need you to hold on
What am I going to do
When your memories are all gone?
