Dementia

Do you feel it when it starts to slip? Do you even realize that you've lost your grip? I don't know who you are But I know who you've been It's sad to see you lose your way again Now what you've found is what I resent So I'll bite off my tongue While I learn to pretend When you forget my name Will you still know my face? Will you remember how it used to be? Or will it all be erased? Dementia! I'm digging and searching But I can't find you here Dementia! Tell me - where is the person I once knew? Tell me - what has it done with you? Dementia! When you forget my name Will you still love my face? Will you remember how it used to be? Or will there not be a trace? When you forget my name I'll still hold your face
