People Forget - Antemasque
I remember falling out of the sky
I was 16 tons of wreckage
Trying to learn how to fly
Return to sender
The water is coming up fast
Screaming to the current
They shoot horses don't they
Casting a slur
I heard a voice from the river
Ringing out through the bones of its lantern jaw
People forget
People tend to forget
People forget
People tend to forget
People forget
People tend to forget
And I just wanna remind you
And when I landed hitting every branch down
My 'chute had failed to open tangled baby under the sun
Yeah I was baited on a hook and a wire
Teasing at the current in the heart of the Mekong Delta
Casting a slur
I heard a voice from the river
Ringing out through the bones of its lantern jaw
People forget
People tend to forget
People forget
People tend to forget
People forget
People tend to forget
And I just wanna remind you
People forget
People tend to forget
People forget
People tend to forget
People forget
People tend to forget
And I just wanna remind you
In every coroner's bag is an atheist
Sprung from the foxhole that he dug
Don't count me out now
Don't count me out now
I'm like a diamond in the rough
Don't count me out now
Don't count me out now
I'm like a diamond in the rough
Diamonds seem to make the perfect cut
But time it waits for no man
An indefinite stay of execution until
I'm dragged to my crooked home
Don't count me out now
Don't count me out now
I'm like a diamond in the rough
Don't count me out now
Don't count me out now
I'm like a diamond in the rough
People forget
People tend to forget
People forget
People tend to forget
People forget
People tend to forget
And I just wanna remind you
People forget
People tend to forget
People forget
People tend to forget
People forget
People tend to forget
And I just wanna remind you
