When Everyone Forgets Paroles

Railroad tracks or slaveship decks
Why has your love become neglect?
Somewhere there's a memory
A truth that lives in lies
An echo of the way you knew me under foreign skies
Will I live in hiding
Between these silhouettes?
Will you remember me when everyone forgets?
Do you know me anymore?
Wasn't I your comfort and your god
And weren't you the shore
I called you home and cried for you but
Sons rise up and Shadow falls
Over rooftops, years and eyes are in
The hopes that you'll recall
Wasn't I a god to you?
Somewhere there's a memory
A truth that lives in lies
An echo of the way you knew me under foreign skies
Will I live in hiding Just a lonely stranger in America, but
I'm still here
Oh, god, I'm here
I swear
Somewhere there's a memory
A truth that lives in lies
An echo of the way you knew me under foreign skies
Will I live in hiding
Between these silhouettes?
Will you remember me when everyone forgets?
