Nothing to Forget - The Dillinger Escape Plan

Innocent angel watching over me

Covering up in a crown of thorns so I could not see

Guilty by birth, a choice that wasn’t mine

Seeding me deep with a terror growing over time

Covering up so I could not see

Covering up so I could not see

Covering up so I could not see

Your fingers choking me

Please let me be by myself, I don’t need anything

Please let me be by myself, I don’t need anything

Please let me be by myself, I don’t need anything

Please let me be by myself, I don’t need anyone else

Anything just to gain the years I lost

Driven by instinct resolute and I’m the cost

I don’t remember existing at all

Only in moments as I struggle not to fall

Please let me be by myself, I don’t need anything

Please let me be by myself, I don’t need anything

Please let me be by myself, I don’t need anything

Please let me be by myself, I don’t need anyone else

In darkened rooms

As I try to look for you

I feel out forgotten days

With nothing to light the way

With all your fear

As a fuel to get me here

I climbed out of others' graves

And swam through a tidal wave

In darkened rooms

When I stop looking for you

I’ll illuminate the days

And make sure to light the way

Please let me be by myself, I don’t need anything

Please let me be by myself, I don’t need anything

Please let me be by myself, I don’t need anything

Please let me be by myself, I don’t need anyone else

Please let me be by myself, I don’t need anything

Please let me be by myself, I don’t need anything

Please let me be by myself, I don’t need anything

Please let me be by myself, I don’t need anyone else
