Lyrics
Selective Memory
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Now you're standing here alone
Trying to know in whose funeral you are
All of your memory, just like her,
Flashed out and gone
Probably you've tried this before
Burned loads of your stuff
Well that's not who you are
This is who you were
Selective memory
Changing what you used to be
Selective memory
Out of reality
I guess I can only make you remember
The things you want to be true
You don't want the truth
You make up your own
To create a puzzle you can never solve
A sense of purpose to your wasted and worthless life
Selective memory
Changing what u used to be
Selective memory
Out of reality
I have to believe in a world outside of my mind
For the world won't disappear when you close your eyes
If I just would know how long I've been alone
But how can I heal if I don't feel time
I'm going to find him
I'm going to kill him
