Remember To Forget Lyrics - Otep

Hush now, close your eyes 

Open your mouth, swallow lies 

Hush now, close your eyes 

Open your mouth, swallow, swallow lies 

Moth breath fluttering 

He whispered to me 

The violence of silence 

We have a terrible secret that we must never repeat 

And if I do, he'll dedicate his life to ripping me to shreds 

Remember to forget 

Poison crown of regret 

Sucking life like funeral flies 

Shadow of Oedipus 

Eat the fever; knife the eyes 

Remember 

To forget 

To relent 

To surrender 

Remember 

To forget 

To relent 

To surrender 

I hope you die like swine surrounded by starving dogs 

I'm stained by your sin like the blood-soaked boards of the cross 

Between the Devil and the deep sea, you'll find me 

Dreaming evil endlessly, aroused by life's fantasies 

What do you do when dreams come true and it's all so ordinary? 

Stitch the wounds of complacency and hide your eyes from reality? 

I am the shape of a God lifting up the sky 

Remember 

To forget 

To relent 

To surrender 

Remember 

To forget 

To relent 

To surrender 

Insurrection 

INSURRECTION 

I kicked you out of bed 

Stabbed knives into the walls 

Poured gas over your head 

Struck a match in the hall 

This will remind you 

This will remind you 

This will remind you the burden we carry 

This will remind you 

This will remind you 

This will remind you the razors are ready 

Room after room I hunt the darkened world for you 

Casket black, dried and cracked, ashes among the dunes 

But I've gone blind in time to lose you to the dark 

Now I'm immune to you and your whorish heart 

Hush now close your eyes 

Open your mouth, swallow lies 

Hush now you're all mine 

Close your eyes, close your eyes 

Remember 

To forget 

To relent 

To surrender 

Remember 

To forget 

To relent 

To surrender
