I Will Never Forget

I Will Never Forget - Kimya Dawson

Written by：Kimya Dawson

I sat in the swamp with a little pink piggy

Who loved roller-skating and playing pretend

The boy that she loved was a real snackmaster

The world was a beach ball and we were all friends

Then he died alone and the last time I saw her

It looked like the reaper had rapped on her door

She said do you remember singing ice ice baby with me

Laying down on the reef bathroom floor

How could I ever forget I could never forget

I will never forget

How could I ever forget I could never forget

I will never forget

Jimmy and Johnny just stare at each other

While their mother hangs in the holiday inn

Your funeral on your son's seventh birthday

Is the worst thing you could ever give him

I bet he'd like flowers balloons and a card

Unconditionally yours all my love from your mom

Much more than wearing that little black suit

And saying goodbye forever to you

I haven't forgotten the times that I teased you

And everyone else pointed at you and laughed

Permanent damage was not my intention

But I could not foresee the aftermath of my actions

I was so small

Wanted to grow in the eyes of my enemies

For awhile I felt tall

But they knocked me back down now I'm here on my knees

Looking at my face in a bed of pine needles

And wondering if anyone stills knows my name

I turned full circle and another half circle

And tried to go back the same way that I came

Look alive Dawson your heels are dragging

I never knew anyone could move so slow

You may be a hotshot now but you are still a cow

A big fat F why don't you just go home

I guess that that means I did not make the team

I'll just lay on the ground and look up at the trees

The old bedford oak the tall evergreens

This is not a joke this is not a dream

Not sleeping just resting in pieces that I wish were peaches

I saw your dad later that day

Maybe he shot himself could've been someone else

Asked me to tell you what he had to say

You don't have to end up with people who self destruct

Go find a lover who will never leave

Fear of abandonment self hate and discontent

Will go away when you let yourself grieve

And forget about me forget about me forget about me

How could I ever forget I could never forget

I will never forget

How could I ever forget I could never forget

I will never forget

How could I ever forget I could never forget

I will never forget

How could I ever forget I could never forget

I will never forget
