The New Denial


i can't do this anymore:
stay in, black out, hit the floor
i've forgotten what i'm hiding from
but mama called and cried to me,
"baby, your anniversary was last tuesday"
that's rightokay, i guess it slipped my mind
and that's fine with me, i guess,
though it came as a surprise
i gotta celebrate my memory's retreat
it's finally forgetting things
i pushed it away i let histroy lie
finally memory sleeps
goodnight

it's gonna be all right okay?
i'm leaving everything behind
so goodnight, farewell-and cheers
to the new denial
exhausted with the born again routine
you die a little bit each time you smile
so grit your teeth, they like you happy
