Remember Me If I Forget

Have I lived my whole life for it to come down to this?
Remember me if I forget
When I was a child, we took care of our folks
Remember me if I forget
Is it too much to ask to repay what you owe?
Remember me if I forget
Our grandparents told us we'd reap just what we sowed
Remember me if I forget

When I was young, we looked after our folks
Remember me if I forget
Now we're in the way, both too young and too old
Remember me if I forget
Our story is long, and you only hear what you want
Remember me if I forget
I worked for my living, I didn't follow my dream
Remember me if I forget

Have I lived my whole life for it to come down to this?
Remember me if I forget
My side is sharp, and I don't know your face
Remember me if I forget
Remember me if I forget
Remember me if I forget
Remember me if I forget
