If you could only

Forget me, forget me

Let me fade,

I'll slip to the darkness,

the cool, quiet, comforting

shade.

Memories of me

will pass and fade

Little impressions

no obligation to stay.

Yet retain still

the empathy

to stay my hand,

still, beating.

Hold me not

within your mind,

few cherished thoughts,

beside all my crimes

For there I surely rest my eyes,

this world we live, is not mine

so let me fade, let me fade.

If you could only

Forget me, forget me

I shall drift away upon the breeze.
