Remember to Forget Me Lyrics

[Verse 1: Mark Hoppus]
Throw my wishes in a fountain
Deep down under where I found them
Don't let go, I'll probably drown in them
Three, two, one, but who's counting 'em?

[Pre-Chorus: Mark Hoppus]
Hey, mom, I'm on my own
Scared to death and far from home
Can you imagine that, imagine that, imagine that?
You know I'm bad at that, bad at that, bad at that

[Chorus: Mark Hoppus & Matt Skiba]
You left pieces of me along the side of the road
Right after you said you'd never leave me alone
Found myself on the wrong side of the door
I'll come in if you let me
I got a song in my head you played me over the phone
Left the light on upstairs, but there ain't nobody home
All the nights that you end up all alone
Remember to forget me


[Verse 2: Matt Skiba]
This is hard, I'm one step off
I called but you're gone, I'm here but you're not
We both made a left, it don't make it right
I'm trying to forget, but remember the times
[Pre-Chorus: Mark Hoppus]
Hey, mom, I'm on my own
Scared to death and far from home
Can you imagine that, imagine that, imagine that?
You know I'm bad at that, bad at that, bad at that

[Chorus: Mark Hoppus & Matt Skiba]
You left pieces of me along the side of the road
Right after you said you'd never leave me alone
Found myself on the wrong side of the door
I'll come in if you let me
I got a song in my head you played me over the phone
Left the light on upstairs, but there ain't nobody home
All the nights that you end up all alone
Remember to forget me


[Outro: Matt Skiba]
Got a song in my head you played me over the phone
Left the light on upstairs, but there ain't nobody home
All the nights that you end up all alone
Remember to forget me

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

The closer of NINE, is about someone telling his mom to forget him, and let him go into life. This reflects on the band, showing how they became famous, and then toured all around the world, away from their families. The song has a close resemblance to the California single “Home is Such a Lonely Place” as they both detail a character leaving home.
