Lyrics

Tears to Forget

[Verse 1]

These tears to remember

These tears to forget

When I try to cry one

These tears do forget you

[Chorus]

I suckle life

It's love and it's beauty

Well I scream from life

Its honor and its beauty

[Verse 2]

These tears to remember

These tears to forget

When I try to cry one

These tears they do forget you

[Chorus]

I suckle life

It's love and it's beauty

Well I scream from life

Its honor and its beauty

Remember, forget
