I was alone, falling free
Trying my best not to forget
What happened to us, what happened to me
What happened as I let it slip
I was confused by the powers that be
Forgetting names and faces
Passers by were looking at me
As if they could erase it

Baby, did you forget to take your meds?
Baby, did you forget to take your meds?

I was alone staring over the ledge
Trying my best not to forget
All manner of joy, all manner of glee
And our one heroic pledge
How it mattered to us, how it mattered to me
And the consequences
I was confused by the birds and the bees
Forgetting if I meant it

Baby, did you forget to take your meds?
Baby, did you forget to take your meds?
Baby, did you forget to take your meds?
Baby, did you forget to take your meds?

And the sex, and the drugs, and the complications
And the sex, and the drugs, and the complications
And the sex, and the drugs, and the complications
And the sex, and the drugs, and the complications

Baby, did you forget to take your meds?
Baby, did you forget to take your meds?
Baby, did you forget to take your meds?
Baby, did you forget to take your meds?
Baby, did you forget to take your meds?
Baby, did you forget to take your meds?

I was alone, falling free
Trying my best not to forget

    Let me explain :)

    I was alone, falling free (falling off the clif or building whatever..) Trying my best not to forget What happened to us, what happened to me What happened as I let it slip (Trying not to forget why he is doing it)

    I was confused by the powers that be Forgetting names and faces (parania and self loathing)

    Passers by were looking at me As if they could erase it (people judging him for considering such a thing)

    Baby, did you forget to take your meds? (X2) (comments that people use to judge people in that way)

    I was alone staring over the ledge Trying my best not to forget All manner of joy, all manner of glee And our one heroic pledge (Trying to convince himself not to jump)

    How it mattered to us, how it mattered to me And the consequences I was confused by the birds and the bees Forgetting if I meant it (the confusion of life)

    Baby, did you forget to take your meds? (X4) (same as it meant before)

    I was alone, falling free Trying my best not to forget (his final decision to jump)
