Not Forgotten Songtext
von Siouxsie and the Banshees
Not Forgotten Songtext
You buried it so deep
So safe in hidden sleep
But like a tell-tale corpse
Rises to the surface
Over-ripe and bloated
In naked time-lapsed truth
Thought it was lost forever
Remember this
How long has it been
Or have you forgotten
When you first forgot?
Now resurrection the phoenix
Aflame with pride and conceit
Remembers this
Wind blown leaves outside
Applauding like the ocean
To the cacophony inside
The waves come rushing in
A crashing whispering
Drowning they drink me
Ah, not forgotten
Ah, not forgotten
This is not forgotten
Do you forget how to sleep
Do you forget how to forget
Ah, not forgotten
Ah, not forgotten
Oh, not forgotten
Remember this
So safe in hidden sleep
But like a tell-tale corpse
Rises to the surface
Over-ripe and bloated
In naked time-lapsed truth
Thought it was lost forever
Remember this
How long has it been
Or have you forgotten
When you first forgot?
Now resurrection the phoenix
Aflame with pride and conceit
Remembers this
Wind blown leaves outside
Applauding like the ocean
To the cacophony inside
The waves come rushing in
A crashing whispering
Drowning they drink me
Ah, not forgotten
Ah, not forgotten
This is not forgotten
Do you forget how to sleep
Do you forget how to forget
Ah, not forgotten
Ah, not forgotten
Oh, not forgotten
Remember this
