To Forgive by Smashing Pumpkins (Billy Corgan really knows (or knew) how to write really hitting lyrics.)


Ten times removed
I forget about where it all began
[nocando] son of a [nocando] son of
A wild eyed child of the sun
And right as rain, I�m not the same
But I feel the same, I feel nothing

Holding back the fool again
Holding back the fool pretends
I forget to forget nothing is important
Holding back the fool again

I sensed my loss
Before I even learned to talk
And I remember my birthdays
Empty party afternoons 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 you see
Nothing is important to me

I knew my loss
Before I even learned to speak
And all along, I knew it was wrong
But I played along, with my birthday song

Holding back the fool again
Holding back the fool pretends
I forget to forget
Nothing is important
Holding back the fool again
