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, (x2)

I was alone, staring over the ledge1,
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 would it mattered to me,
And the consequences,
I was confused by the birds and the bees2
Forgetting if I meant it.

Baby, did you forget to take your Meds, (x4)

And the sex, the drugs, and the complications (x4)

Baby, did you forget to take your Meds, (x6)

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

Ce titre est interprété en compagnie de Alison Mosshart (Alias VV de The Kills)

1. Staring over the ledge: L'idée est celle de quelqu'un sur un rebord (ou d'un gouffre pour la version imagée) qui regarde fixement ce qu'il ya sous ses pieds. Posture des suicidaires qui hésitent encore à sauter dans le vide.
2. "The birds and the bees" est une image utilisée lorsqu'il s'agit d'expliquer aux enfants comment ces derniers sont venus au monde. Cela revient à l'idée française du père qui féconde la fleur de la mère d'une petite graine.
