lyrics
you said don't forget anything you said
four chances squandered, fifth won't come out
turn my eyes forward, and reach for blindness
i take my own stand, they force their hand
don't ever forget i've got my
my own reasons
don't turn your back on me
it'll be ok, when i am older
it'll be ok, when this is done
it'll be ok, you will forget me
it'll be ok, it'll be ok
it'll be ok, you aren't forgotten
it'll be ok, i am half gone
it'll be ok, you won't remember
it'll be ok, it'll be ok
you find the half self that can't forgive
empty eyes forward, i can't turn back
drop my words endless, and fight for trying
chosen voice backwards, i can't forget
don't ever forget i've got my
my own reasons
don't turn your back on me
it'll be ok, when i am older
it'll be ok, when this is done
it'll be ok, you won't remember
it'll be ok, it'll be ok
it'll be ok, you aren't forgotten
it'll be ok, when you're half-gone
it'll be ok, i can't remember
it'll be ok, it'll be ok
THEY SPEAK THEIR WORDS AND I CAN'T GO TO SLEEP
fifteen turns and i don't believe you when you tell me...
..that it'll be ok, when i am older
it'll be ok, when this is done
it'll be ok, you can't remember
it'll be ok, it'll be ok
it'll be ok, you aren't forgotten
it'll be ok, i am half-gone
it'll be ok, we won't remember
that it'll be ok, it'll be ok
