E L L - don't forget me

I feel my face is hanging looser on my skull
And I feel the earth pull on my heel bones through my soles
And I swear the other day a child stared straight through me
And all my stories and my loved ones
All my values lost to time
And the world was never mine
But come to think of it I knew that this whole time
I feel the nerves are pulling punches one by one
And my father's hourglass is bulging in its frame
And I swear the other day a child stared straight through me
And struck my labour and my love songs
From the record of our time
And the world was never mine
But come to think of it I knew that this whole time
And the world was never mine
But come to think of it I don't think that'd be right
I hope the mind's distinct from nature's flesh and bone
But I know that's something I can never truly know
But I swear if I find out I'll never waste this daydream
On every memory of a future
That can never come to pass
And the world will cease to be
In every single meaningful capacity
Don't forget me
