"(If You Remember) My Name"
I speak but you don’t hear
‘Cause you’re not listening to me
I whisper, thinking it’ll change
How you hear me, the many ways
Selective hearing
Is what you claim
And what I’m fearing
Is if you remember…my name
I scream into your nerves
I’m gonna go, Van Gogh, if memory serves
I sing the softest notes
And ya hear me, and I gain hope
I cry out to you with my heart
And you ignore me, and I’ve fallen apart
So I play my guitar louder
And I sing the same
I wonder if you’ve forgotten
And my mind wanders and screams
Back at me to stop asking!
