Forget to Remember

Misery in memory
Of the one perfect thing
Or happily forgotten beautiful wonder
To pursue a momentary pleasure
To forget to remember
And remember to forget
The things that we let
Remind us of forever
To remember to forget
And forget to remember
The way that we were left
Without our one true lover
Memories of the future
Are the things my heart still nurtures
The memories of joy we shared
Forget the pain of a soul now bared
This battle rages evermore
Till breath there is no more
The soul remembers what the mind forgets
And the heart forgets what the ego remembers
To forget to remember
And remember to forget
The things that we let
Remind us of forever
To remember to forget
And forget to remember
The way we were left
Without our one true lover
