Artist: ThouShaltNot
Album: Neil Gaiman - Where's Neil When You Need Him
Song: When Everyone Forgets

You followed me, I follow you
And with new language you leave me adrift
To find and swallow you
Into this continental rift
But would our song spill ancient text
When our paths are crossed, our power lost
On railroad tracks or slave ship decks?
Or has your love become neglect?

And somewhere there's a memory
A truth that lives in lies
An echo of the way you knew me
Under foreign skies
And will I live in hiding
Between the silhouettes?
Will you remember me
When everyone forgets?

Do you know me anymore?
Wasn't I your comfort and your god?
And weren't you the shore?
I called you home and cried for you
But suns rise up and shadow falls
Over rooftops, years, and eyes
All in the hopes that you'll recall
Oh wasn't I a god to you?

I promise that I'll still be there
Even when I haven't got a prayer
Just a lonely stranger in America
But I'm still here, oh God I'm here I swear
