empty party afternoons

ten times removed
i forget about where it all began
bastard son of a bastard son of a
wild eyed child of the sun
as right as rain
i'm not the same
but i feel the same
i feel nothing
i sensed my loss
before i even learned to speak
i remember my birthdays
empty party afternoons
that won't come back
holding back the fool again
holding back the fool, pretends
i forget to forget
nothing is important
holding back the fool again
i forget to forget me
i forget to forget can't you see?
nothing is important to me.
i knew my loss
before i even learned to speak
all along i knew it was wrong
but i played along
with my birthday song
