Nothing To Forget Lyrics - Dillinger Escape Plan

Innocent angel watching over me 

Covering up in a crown of thorns so I could not see 

Guilty by birth, a choice that wasn't mine 

Seeding me deep with a terror growing over time 

Covering up so I could not see 

Your fingers choking me 

[Chorus] 

Please let me be by myself, I don't need anything 

Please let me be by myself, I don't need anything 

Please let me be by myself, I don't need anything 

Please let me be by myself, I don't need anyone else 

Anything just to gain the years I lost 

Driven by instinct resolute and I'm the cost 

I don't remember existing at all 

Only in moments as I struggle not to fall 

[Chorus] 

Please let me be by myself, I don't need anything 

Please let me be by myself, I don't need anything 

Please let me be by myself, I don't need anything 

Please let me be by myself, I don't need anyone else 

In darkened rooms 

As I try to look for you 

I feel out forgotten days 

With nothing to light the way 

With all your fears 

As a fuel to get me here 

I climbed out of others' graves 

And swam through a tidal wave 

In darkened rooms 

When I stop looking for you 

I'll illuminate the days 

And make sure to light the way 

[Chorus x2] 

Please let me be by myself, I don't need anything 

Please let me be by myself, I don't need anything 

Please let me be by myself, I don't need anything 

Please let me be by myself, I don't need anyone else
