Have You Forgotten My Name?

We lit, a fire on the moors To watch the purple heather and the gulls Go up in smoke, in late July A stupid thing to make you smile That bracken burned like nothing I've ever seen before What have I become, I left my friends I'm so different now Have you forgotten my name? Down empty streets, where footsteps never ring The village halls, the priests now full of it The hours spent in silent towns, discarded cars we drove around The city still, it never sees the rain Tell it to somebody that cares I found you hiding at the top of the stairs I took the shower just to wash off the shame You just kept saying the same Have you forgotten my name?
