To Be Forgotten - Idlewild

As I use them

These are the words that let me be forgiveen

The minute I choose them

So I won’t try try try

To sell my advice

It’s meant to be forgotten

The minute you try

The lies take the place

Of advice

But I can’t say

If I’m awake

Like I say

We’re built that way where I’m from

An extension of Lacan’s way

A mirror stage

Of disappointment

Where you’re from

Give me a clue when these words were written

In reference to use them

So when they’re gone they intend to be forgotten

The minute you choose them

There’s not much point

Accepting your advice

Like oh to be forgotten

It only takes two minutes for you

To change your mind

But I can’t say

If I’m awake

Like I say

We’re built that way where I’m from

An extension of Lacan’s way

A mirror stage

Of disappointment

Where you’re from
