Antemasque - People Forget lyrics

I remember falling out of the sky I was sixteen tons of wreckage, tryin' to learn how to fly Return to sender, the water's comin' up fast Screamin' to the current, they shoot horses, don't they? Cast in the slur I hear a fight from the river Ringing out from the bounds of a slackened jaw People forget, people tend to forget People forget, people tend to forget People forget, people tend to forget And I just want to remind you And when I landed, hitting every branch down My chute, it failed to open, tangled, hang me out in the sun Yeah, I was baited, on a hook and a wire Teasing the current in the heart of the Mekong Delta Cast in the slur I hear a fight from the river Ringing out from the bounds of its blackened jaw People forget, people tend to forget People forget, people tend to forget People forget, people tend to forget And I just want to remind you People forget, people tend to forget People forget, people tend to forget People forget, people tend to forget And I just want to remind you In every coroner's bag there's an atheist Sprung from the foxhole that he dug Don't count me out now, baby, count me out now I'm like a diamond in the rough ( so rough!) Don't count me out now, baby, count me out now I'm like a diamond in the rough The diamond seems to make the perfect cut But time, it waits for no man An indefinite stay of execution Until I'm dragging my crooked home Don't count me out now, baby, count me out now I'm like a diamond in the rough ( so rough!) Don't count me out now, baby, count me out now I'm like a diamond in the rough People forget, people tend to forget People forget, people tend to forget People forget, people tend to forget And I just want to remind you People forget, people tend to forget People forget, people tend to forget People forget, people tend to forget And I just want to remind you
