Don't Forget Me - Jacob Lee

Tell my mother I wish that I never gave in to the temptation

Tell my brother, my past was affected by his intimidation

Oh, I don’t want to be mad, but I’m sick of losing all of my patience

On people that I should love

Tell my father I thought he would give a little more to our family

Tell my daughter I wish I were there when she got back in that taxi

Oh, I don’t want to be sad, but I don’t believe I’ve ever been happy

And now that we’ve all lost touch

I’m left alight like a cigarette

Cast away without a thought, now

I have no evidence

That we share the same blood

How am I meant to love myself when

Feeling low is sown to my heritage?

If I try harder to explain

I will only push you away

How am I meant to love myself when

I believe deep down I’m irrelevant?

All I ask is, don’t forget me

Tell my wife, she was right, I’d be seeking out the scent of her fragrance

As I learn, what it’s like, to be heavy in a body so vacant

Still our minds, will collide, leaving me with nothing but a headache

As I push, to the side, any thought of you I cannot erase

I’m left alight like a cigarette

Cast away without a thought

Now, I have no evidence

That we were once in love

How am I meant to love myself when

Feeling low is sown to my heritage?

If I try harder to explain

I will only push you away

How am I meant to love myself when

I believe deep down I’m irrelevant?

All I ask is, don’t forget me

Remind me not to fall in love

The aftermath is Is far too much

If all I am, is all you are

Then without me, you’ll fall apart

How am I meant to love myself when

Feeling low is sown to my heritage?

If I try harder to explain

I will only push you away

How am I meant to love myself when

I believe deep down I’m irrelevant?

All I ask is, don’t forget me
