Red House Painters

Red House Painters - Have You Forgotten

　　Red House Painters，一個來自美國舊金山的緩飆樂團，像American Music Club一樣地令人想念起過去的美好，感嘆著逝去的光景，自溺的我們有時候需要這種音樂來引導情緒的宣洩，介紹在wiki有很多，但我想既然4AD的專輯台灣都有代理，不如去唱片行帶一張回家，放進音響裡，然後靜靜地聽著。

　　這首歌讓我想起了你，還有被你刻意忽視遺忘的那一切。我想要挽救的一切，什麼都來不及的一切。冬天不應該這樣過的。

　　這首也是香草天空"Vanilla Sky"裡出現的一首歌。

Lyrics of Have You Forgotten / by Red House Painters

I can't let you be
Cause your beauty won't allow me
Wrapped in white sheets
Like an angel from a bedtime story
Shut out what they say
Cause your friends are fucked up anyway
And when they come around
Somehow they feel up and you feel down
When we were kids
We hated things our parents did
We listened low
To casey kasem's radio show
That's when friends were nice
To think of them just makes you feel nice
The smell of grass in spring
And october leaves cover everything
Have you forgotten how to love yourself?
I can't believe all the good things that you do for me
Sat back in a chair
Like a princess from a faraway place
Nobody's nice
When you're older your heart turns to ice
And shut out what they say
They're too dumb to mean it anyway
When we were kids
We hated things our sisters did
Backyard summer pools
And christmases were beautiful
And the sentiment
Of coloured mirrored ornaments
And the open drapes
Look out on frozen farmhouse landscapes
Have you forgotten how to love yourself?
