Entered this life with a family
Father, mother, siblings and me
Along the way that was torn apart
A marriage died, a broken heart
A family split, to find our way
What was once one becoming they
It's not your fault, they always say
Then why so easy to throw away
Do you even remember
What is my name
I am here still
Not just to blame
What about me
What about you
How do you live with the things you do
What about us
What about her
Faces and names become a blur
The years drag on
The tear-stained face
Why did you have me in the first place
I'm not a thing
I am someone
Forgotten son
Forgotten One
The family grew, but grew apart
Each one searching for where to start
We heard the whispers you'd found someone new
And together had more children too
No more visits and no more calls
With a new family you forgot us all
What did I do, what did I say
That made me so easy to throw away
Do you even remember
What is my name
I am here still
I'm not to blame
What about me
What about you
How do I live with the things you do
What about us
What about her
Sometimes I wonder if we ever were
The years drag on
My blood-stained face
Why did you make me in the first place
Am I a thing
I am no one
Forgotten son
Forgotten One
Do you ever even think of me
Does my existence ever make you sad
Being a father only takes a f*ck
It takes a man to be a dad
I really hope you remember
I own my name
Even though you're blood
We're not the same
What about me
What about you
Who I am is in spite of you
What about us
What about her
I'm not some disease looking for a cure
The years drag on
A time-worn face
Even without you I found a place
I am some thing
I am some one
Forgotten son
Forgotten One
The years drag on
Forgotten face
Disgraced, replaced, and then erased
I am some thing
I am some one
Forgotten son
Forgotten One
