MEMORY
Direct (Feat. Holly Drummond) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I always seem to make the same mistakes,
Too quick, too faulty,
Fast to push away, away
I miss a lot of your touch and your embrace,
No one ever made me feel so safe, so safe

Slow down, don't forget me now
I don't wanna fade out of your memory, your memory
Hold up, I know I had my doubts,
But I want to fade back into your memory, your memory
Your memory

I always seem to take the wrong turn,
Repeating history,
When will I learn, I learn
I miss the way that you smile when you look at me,
No one ever made me feel so free, so free

Slow down, don't forget me now
I don't wanna fade out of your memory, your memory
Hold up, I know I had my doubts,




But I want to fade back into your memory, your memory
Your memory

Line by Line Meaning

I always seem to make the same mistakes,
Repeating past errors flawlessly and consistently,


Too quick, too faulty,
Not giving enough time and doing things inefficiently,


Fast to push away, away
Being quick to distance myself emotionally,


I miss a lot of your touch and your embrace,
Feeling the loss of physical affection and warmth,


No one ever made me feel so safe, so safe
Not having felt as comfortable and secure with anyone else,


Slow down, don't forget me now
Taking it easy and not letting go of our relationship,


I don't wanna fade out of your memory, your memory
I intend to always stay in your mind and heart,


Hold up, I know I had my doubts,
I'm sorry for being skeptical at times,


But I want to fade back into your memory, your memory
I want to reintegrate myself into your memories and be close to you again,


Your memory
Your recollections of our love story.
