Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
Please, remember me
Happily
By the rosebush laughing
With bruises on my chin
The time when
We counted every black car passing
Your house beneath the hill
And up until
Someone caught us in the kitchen
With maps, a mountain range
A piggy bank
A vision too removed to mention
And
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
Please, remember me
Fondly
I heard from someone you're still pretty
And then they went on to say
That the pearly gates
Had such eloquent graffiti
Like "We'll meet again"
And "Fuck the man"
And "Tell my mother not to worry"
And angels with their great
Handshakes
Were always done in such a hurry
And
Verse 3→ Phiên khúc
Please, remember me
That Halloween
Making fools of all the neighbors
Our faces painted white
By midnight
We'd forgotten one another
And when the morning came
I was ashamed
Only now it seems so silly
That season left the world
And then returned
And now you're lit up by the city
And
Verse 4→ Phiên khúc
Please, remember me
Mistakenly
In the window of the tallest tower
Calling passers-by
We're much too high
To see the empty road at happy hour
Gleam and resonate
Just like the gates
Around the holy kingdom
With words like "Lost and found"
And "Don't look down"
And "Someone save Temptation"
And
Verse 5→ Phiên khúc
Please, remember me
As in the dream
We had as rug-burn babies
Among the fallen trees
We're fast asleep
Beside the lions and the ladies
That called you what you like
And even might
Give a gift for your behavior
A fleeting chance to see
A trapeze
Swinger high as any savior
And
Verse 6→ Phiên khúc
Please, remember me
My misery
And how it lost me all I wanted
Those dogs that love the rain
And chasing trains
The colored birds above their running
In circles around the well
And where it spells
On the wall behind St. Peter
So bright on cinder gray
In spray paint
"Who the hell can see forever?"
And
Verse 7→ Phiên khúc
Please, remember me
Seldomly
In the car behind the carnival
My hand between your knees
You turned from me
And said, "The trapeze act was wonderful
But never meant to last"
The clowns that passed
Saw me just come up with anger
When it filled with circus dogs
The parking lot
Had an element of danger
And
Verse 8→ Phiên khúc
Please, remember me
Finally
And all my uphill clawing
My dear, but if I make
The pearly gates
I'll do my best to make a drawing
Of God and Lucifer
A boy and girl
An angel kissing on a sinner
A monkey and a man
A marching band
All around the frightened trapeze swinger
