They'll give us something
they'll give us so much to forget
Or enough rope to deal with it
They'll give us something
they'll give us so much to forget
Or enough rope to deal with it
With pencil and light
You heard your love again
you wrestled your nightmares
the sweat in your bedsheets
This is all of it 
this is everything
I'm wanting to forget 
When winter sets in
it has a way of crystallizing the bad times
The fevers the heartaches
This is all of it 
this is everyone
I'm wanting to forget 
They'll give us something
they'll give us so much to forget
Or enough rope to deal with it
They'll give us something
they'll give us so much to forget
Or enough rope to deal with it
With pencil and light
You heard your love again
you wrestled your nightmares
the sweat in your bedsheets
This is all of it 
this is everything
I'm wanting to forget
