Forget Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sometimes I think I'm not that strong
But there's a force that carries me on
Sick of my small heart, made of steel
Sick of the wounds that never heal (Never heal)
[Pre-Chorus 1]
'Cause I have lived my life in debt
I've spent my days in deep regret
Yeah, I've been living in the red
Oh, cause I can't forgive and I can't forget, forget
[Chorus]
Forget, forget
Forget, forget
Ain't no time for regret
Yeah, it's time to forget
[Verse 2]
Ever since I can remember
Life was like a tipping scale
Like an abacus I played with
Counting every win and fail (Win and fail)
[Pre-Chorus 2]
'Cause I have lived my life in debt
I've spent my days in deep regret
Yeah, I've been living in the red
But I wanna forgive and forget
[Chorus]
Forget, forget
Forget, forget
Ain't no time for regret
Yeah, it's time
[Post-Chorus]
To be letting go
Oh, baby you know
What I'm talking about
Got nothing to lose and nothing to prove
Oh, baby, I'm bowing out
Out, I'm bowing out
[Bridge]
Yeah, I've been dancing with the devil
I love that he pretends to care
If I'll ever get to heaven
When a million dollars gets you there
Oh, all the time that I have wasted
Chasing rabbits down a hole
When I was born to be the tortoise
I was born to walk alone
Forget about it
Forget about it
Forget about it
[Chorus]
Forget, forget
Forget, forget
Ain't no time for regret
[Outro]
I'm gonna leave the past behind
I've had enough, I'm breaking free
No pressing stop, erase, rewind
That chain of thought that followed me
I've put my money where my mouth is
For the first time in my life
I've made mistakes but I believe that
Everything was worth the fight
'Cause, in the end, the road is long
But only 'cause it makes you strong
It's filled with peaks and twists and turns
Sometimes you have to learn to forget about it

In a track-by-track interview about FROOT, Marina said about “Forget”:
[It] is one of my favorites. It’s pretty much the only chorus I’ve ever written that has only one word in it. I wrote that when I was extremely hungover the day after a Brit Awards party. It kind of encapsulates the mood of t...
