Lyrics
After all, they are just memories
Like the photos of my past, of my childhood
Sitting there in a shoebox under the eaves
Why should I care?
I look at them every few years
and while it’s refreshing, it deepens my fears
It’s a time that has come and gone
becoming less significant with each passing second
Why should I stare?
On this last day on earth
Do I really want this box of memories by my side
Just to remind me of my past?
Magnetic particles encased in plastic
slowly degrading into dust.
I have these dreams, that when I die
I won’t have anything, and it makes me smile.
On this last day on earth
Do I really want this box of memories by my side
Just to remind me of my past?
Leave the memories, play the stories
Empty bodies, skeleton recordings
