Song Description

"Remember Me" is a sad, country-tinged, soul ballad that finds someone hurt, neglected, and ultimately confused by a forgetful lover. The song begins with an acoustic guitar and a fragile, falsetto voice but gradually works it's way into a climax of swirling lap steel, cries of uncertainty, and melotron strings.

Lyrics

Have you forgotten what you told me that you would do ?
I'm lyin' here tired, just waiting for you.
You sold me your story, simply leaving out the second part.
You shut down my circuit board and you left me in the dark
I thought you would always remember me
I guess I'm just one more neglected priority

No need to worry, livin' in the lap of luxury.
But mountains of money could never by you another me.
Now everything is up in the air.
I really wouldn't even worry if I didn't care.

What do you want me to say?
Should I sit back and just act like everything is okay ?
What do you want me to do?
When my point of view would bother you too.
There's so much I wish I had said ...

But here I am stuck inside my head.

I guess you've forgotten what you told me that you would do .
I'm trying to understand why, 'cause I'm so confused.
You wore me and washed me, then you hung me on the line to dry.
But you left me here swingin', after all this time.
I thought you would always remember me
I guess I'm just one more neglected priority

What do you want me to say?
Sit back and look at everything from the other way.
What do you have to hide?
Do you expect me to turn my head and close my eyes ?
There's so much I wish I had said ...

But here I am stuck inside my head.
Here I am stuck inside my head
I don't know what to do.
I don't know what to say.
It feels like I'm going crazy.
I'm going crazy.
