Forgotten Not Gone Lyrics

growing up i used to worry about the day they dropped the bomb
blow up my house my dad and my mom
everyime the sky would turn a funny shade of green
i thought they'd drop the bomb on me
and then media told us not to worry anymore
that there wasn't any threat of a nuclear war
and everyone just forgot
everyone just forgot about it
everyime i thought about it i'd get real scared
and now i'm glad they told me not to care
what you got to keep in mind is that all those bombs are still there
i bet one day we'll find out why we were so scared.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
