I Want to Be Forgot

Mandy, we made out once at city hall
When the lights were off and everyone was home
We were right there on the front steps
And Mandy, late one night you called on me
Talked on the phone in my dark room
When it got so much harder to breath
I opened the window
Felt like a shadow
I felt like death hung from my throat
Oh, have mercy!
"I've got to let you go."

I've got a crying mind
It rattles loose sometimes
When I get sick with thought
When I've had enough
It's the only time I talk to God
It's the only time I want to be forgot

Mandy, my mom drove me to emergency
And asked me if I'd been taking drugs
I told her my friends were smoking bud
My heart was racing
My hands were sweating
They did a couple of tests
It felt like the ending
The results came in
They told me there was nothing wrong
I laid around for a week
I didn't answer the phone
I only watched TV sitcoms and shows about family

I've got a crying mind
It rattles loose sometimes
When I get sick with thought
When I've had enough
It's the only time I talk to God
It's the only time I want to be forgot

You called me once, worried
You were having a baby with your skinhead boyfriend,
But you'd been sleeping with a Mexican
Oh, Mandy, oh really what can I say?
You really rolled the dice this time,
But it's your life, it isn't mine
Years later, you looked happy at the reunion
You were coming over to say hi,
So I ducked out to get some fries

I've got a crying mind
It rattles loose sometimes
When I get sick with thought
When I've had enough
It's the only time I talk to God
It's the only time I want to be forgot
