Song Title: Forget
Music by: Hammy
Arrangement by: Hammy
Lyrics by: Hammy
Written: Aug 2006
Recorded: Aug/Sep 2006


This was another of the early ones that I wrote at home and just took to the band. It was quite an important indicator of how I wanted the band to sound. This song replicated itself live very easily compared to others. Sometimes songs just work straight away and this one did. I still really love playing this song, and sounds brilliant when we have the synths on the go. Getting live keys/samples will definately be a priority again for me.

Lyrically, its a song about the way I used to just get drunk all the time and all the nonsense that came with that. I'd meet someone, spend a whole evening in their company, and still not know their name. Then, maybe a week later, I'd meet them again. I'd recognise their face, but still not remember their name. I was pretty bad for doing that! Names were often stored as "S" (if I knew it began with an 'S' at least!) or "Bird" if I was really bad.

This song kind of dignifies that whole indignity somewhat. - Hammy


I take a glancing look
Enough to see you coming
Enough to be found out
Accross a crowded room
Candles burning
For you

...And I forget your name
But I know your face
Its someone all but too familiar
...And I forget your name
But this time
I'll be leaving here with you my friend

Let's forget the hollow pleasantries
And lets cut to the chase
This ain't no 'boy meets girl' fairytale story
There ain't no wedding bells

I know its not much of an invitation
And that was all I ever need
There wasn't even a suggestion either
But that's what you deserve

...And I forget uour name
But I know your face
Its someone all but too familiar
...And I forget your name
But this time
I'll be leaving here with you my friend

Start believing
This time
Start believing
In your innocence

Something won and something lost
You keep me now at your own cost
Then dreams of you they start to fade away
So familiar, so surreal
That face of yours, I'd like to steal
You'd stick yourself to stick it to me
You're not concerned to see me bleed

...And I forget your name
But I know your face
Its someone all but too familiar
...And I forget your name
But this time
I'll be leaving here with you my friend
