Memories

We're down the road now, so where's your coat now?

Would you have kept it if you knew what you know now?

Oh, on the low down, I'm feeling closed out

Yeah, I knew you once a long time ago now

See, now and then I think back and wow, my

Way back when kinda hurts right now

Oh, memories, chemical signal burdens

Keeping my brain from working

Killing my serotonin, yeah

Oh, memories, can't count the ways I curse you

Wish that I could unlearn you

Hope that they find a cure soon

Oh

A disconnection from recollection

I'm vacationing from my transgressions

In this subversion of expectation

I'm stepping out and seeking redemption

I could move someplace, I could change my name

But I won't let things go this way again

Oh, memories, chemical signal burdens

Keeping my brain from working

Killing my serotonin, yeah

Oh, memories, can't count the ways I curse you

Wish that I could unlearn you

Hope that they find a cure soon

In all of the times that I could've broke, I hinged on something

If I don’t take stock and if I don't grow, then it's been for nothing

I'll take my baggage down the road and I'll be what I'm stuck with

Yeah, there's a lot I gotta take

Little moments, still haunting

'Cause I don't get the point of it

When you don't get what you wanted

Or you needed something and you lost it

Yeah, I miss you, yeah, you don't care

It's a hard truth to take, but I'm getting there

You went someplace, you went somewhere

But the mark you left remains

Oh, memories, chemical signal burdens

Keeping my brain from working

Killing my serotonin, yeah

Oh, memories, can't count the ways I curse you

Wish that I could unlearn you

Hope that they find a cure soon

And always

Something burnin' out, out, out, out

And someday

We may figure out what or how
