Memory
Caravelli & His Orchestra Lyrics

I sent some connectivity into the id
I delved deep into my thoughts and emotions

And what I found there was the worst
But the reality of my feelings was painful

Oh it makes me hurt
I feel immense emotional pain

It makes no sense
My emotions don't make logical sense

No sense at all
They seem completely irrational

I went downstairs to see if the cat was alive
I sought out some sort of comfort

And I found her sittin down
And found some solace from my pet

By her broken water fountain
But even that source of comfort was damaged

She looked surprised
My pet didn't understand my emotional distress

Thirsty, but wise
But she was still aware of her physical needs

I bent my back near'n half makin you so small
I put in immense effort to try and please you

What's there left of you to break?
But what did I truly gain from it?

Won't you go back
I wish you would just leave me alone

Go back home alone
So I can have some time to myself

So I can sleep
And try to find peace in rest

I once met the mayor at the annual county fair
I had the chance to meet someone important

He was fatter in real life
But the experience was underwhelming

I felt betrayed
And I was left feeling disappointed

As I made awkward eye contact
Especially when his wife caught me looking at them

With his wife
And I was embarrassed by the situation

Ain't it the same thing over and over?
Doesn't life seem to repeat itself?

Ain't it the same thing over and over?
Are we doomed to endless repetition?

Ain't it the same thing over and over again?
Is life just a cycle of the same events?

I miss those days in the mountains after school
I long for a simpler time in my life

Where no one could hunt us down
A time when I felt protected and safe

That was our mountain
A place that was just ours

Little kings and queens
When life was full of possibility and imagination

With green and golden crowns
And everything seemed magical and beautiful

I think about the way we used to live our lives
I reflect on a past that is gone

How the midnight wine would stain
And the memories that still linger

Are we real now like then?
But can we ever truly go back?

Am I alive now like then?
Or are we forever changed by our experiences?

Are we more we than them?
And do we truly know ourselves, or are we just a sum of our past?

I can't go back to a life without your love
I rely on someone else to make my life fulfilling

And I know that sounds cliché
I understand that this is a common trope

But I don't give a shit
But I don't care about the opinion of others

You are the sum of my life
Because you provide the happiness that makes life worth living

The sum of all my pain
But also the source of all my struggles and sorrow

I don't where we go, but we go from here
I don't know what the future holds

From the space that I have made
But I have faith in myself and my ability to navigate whatever comes

This broken peace
Even if it isn't perfect or easy

This wasted air passin between
We will move forward together, even if it isn't always comfortable

You and Me
Because in the end, we are all we have

Ain't it the same thing over and over?
But even with all its challenges and uncertainties, life goes on

Ain't it the same thing over and over?
And we will continue to face the same struggles and joys

Ain't it the same thing over and over again?
Until the very end.
