Short-Term Memory Loss
You're one resigning feature
I forgave it endlessly
And on countless occasions
Where we could see how to escape this mess
But then protest: it's not a responsible choice
How could you believe it again
Is it not enough to say
They're gonna kill your kids
If left unchecked
Drawn helplessly to the blood money
Of an oil oligarchy
So I waste my time
Writing down lists of obvious places
We should have been able to
Move on from and be better than
So presumably we forgot
It's short term memory loss
So presumably we forgot
It's short term memory loss
Would it be obvious to say
That the future we chose
Was a bad one after all
Would I be criticised if I said
The alternative
Could still be seen
While they sit and stair down
On us like we are nothing but
Tools for them to use
And I know it must be tough for you to realise
Your time's not your time
So presumably we forgot
It's short term memory loss
So presumably we forgot
It's short term memory loss
So presumably we forgot
It's short term memory loss
So presumably we forgot
It's short term memory loss
I forgave it endlessly
And on countless occasions
Where we could see how to escape this mess
But then protest: it's not a responsible choice
How could you believe it again
Is it not enough to say
They're gonna kill your kids
If left unchecked
Drawn helplessly to the blood money
Of an oil oligarchy
So I waste my time
Writing down lists of obvious places
We should have been able to
Move on from and be better than
So presumably we forgot
It's short term memory loss
So presumably we forgot
It's short term memory loss
Would it be obvious to say
That the future we chose
Was a bad one after all
Would I be criticised if I said
The alternative
Could still be seen
While they sit and stair down
On us like we are nothing but
Tools for them to use
And I know it must be tough for you to realise
Your time's not your time
So presumably we forgot
It's short term memory loss
So presumably we forgot
It's short term memory loss
So presumably we forgot
It's short term memory loss
So presumably we forgot
It's short term memory loss
