I Can't Change My Contact Email Address As I've Forgotten My Facebook Password

My old email address has been deactivated and I am trying to change the pertinent details on my Facebook account to my new email address. However, I CANNOT REMEMBER MY PASSWORD. This makes it impossible to do, because Facebook will only email confirmation of a new password. I WILL NOT RECEIVE THE EMAIL THEY SEND because the registered email address on my account is DEACTIVATED. This is very frustrating. Any ideas of the solution?

You must be able to use an email address registered with Facebook. Otherwise, if you can't recall your password, you're out of luck. Sorry.
