paroles de chanson The Forgetting Room - Seeming

We were children when I met you
There between the autumn trees
You consumed me and I let you
Burn me in the fallen leaves
A thousand winters each more serious
Separated earth and sky
The blood was angry, blood was furious
But the heart cannot recall just why

The quill won′t recognize the paper
The piano doesn't know its keys
The stars are old and can′t remember
What it's like to map the seas
And when I look at you I tremble
But damned if I know who you are
A ghostly haze of sweet November
Lost and senile as the stars

And here in this forgetting room
The rising sun's a setting moon
And all the world fits in our hands
And this forgetting room
Goes to sleep; we′re entombed
By no high command
There′s nothing more to understand

But in all the happenstance of nature
The cruelty without a name
A random number generator
Is still a function all the same
So even if the sky is broken
Idiotic, blind with age
I will hold you and keep hoping
There's a script to guide the stage
And it goes on and on

Here in this forgetting room
The rising sun′s a setting moon
And all the world fits in our hands
And this forgetting room
Goes to sleep; we're entombed
By no high command
There′s nothing more to understand

And if that's how it has to happen
If that′s the way it's gotta be
Then I submit against all reason
A small request for you and me

Make the universe forget us
In some old dusty catacomb
Nameless, numberless, and breathless
Let our closeness be our home

First we'd forget why there was fire
Then forget why there was love
And I forget what′s next cause I
Forget what I was thinking of—right!
We were children when I met you
Carried in the careless breeze
Now if you leave me, I would let you
But what′s the use of memories?
When now is all your eyes can see
When I forget the melody
