lyrics

People move so fast
dream the dust of chance
tied to the past
yeah we tied our hands

what tomorrow may bring
nobody can tell
you can gather up moon dust
or dig a well

some things fade and some things last
one thing won’t change
and that is the past

so try to forget
forgive and forget
there’s nothing i ain't told you
you didn’t need to know
so try to forget

memory fires off of random paths
it’s never the entire photograph
we can light a torch and watch it burn
burn through the night till the world has turned
around itself and around the sun
it’ll never return to where it has begun

so try to forget
forgive and forget
there’s nothing i ain't told you
you didn’t already know
so try to forget
forgive and forget
there’s nothing that they sold you
you really need to own
so try to forget

times we played at love
and disregarded hearts
the times i left in anger
tearing things apart

i lost some things i can never get back
i chased some dreams i couldn’t quite catch
time comes around to forget all that
the future is larger than the past

so try to forget
forgive and forget
there’s nothing i ain't told you
you didn’t already know
so try to forget
forgive and forget
there’s nothing that they sold you
you didn’t already own

so try to forget…
