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
