Memories You Didn't Know You'd Forgotten

by Kate Krontiris

/

lyrics

Lyrics:
I heard about this new thing
You go to a place and take a drink
You close your eyes and see
Your memories come floating all around


You look left and see who’s here in love
You look right to see who left a scar
You can’t believe it’s all here for you
These memories you didn’t know you’d forgotten.

You smell cigarettes and remember guns
You smell garlic and remember warmth
You smell rubber and remember the bus
You smell Jergens and feel her love.

Love, love
Love

You look left and see her crouched and numb
You look right and see her sucking her thumb
You can’t believe it’s all here for you
These memories you didn’t know you’d forgotten.

You hear a glass drop and remember alarm
You hear a door slam and remember fear
You hear him rumbling and sneak away
You hear music and remember you’re alive

Alive, alive
Alive

Bow to the pain.
It wasted your time and robbed your memory
Bow to the pain.
It’s handing you your present to reclaim.

You wake up to a multiverse
You wake up to an internal flame
You wake up to the signs of love
You wake up to fireworks exploding.

Exploding, exploding
Exploding, exploding

Alive, alive
Alive, alive
