Amnesia
Dying Tears Lyrics

The lyrics of Dying Tears' song Amnesia seem to be about the lingering feelings of a past memory. The singer is depicted as still wandering, haunted by the whispering of lost delight. It appears that this lost delight is a nostalgic feeling that the singer cannot quite remember, a vaporous memory which only exists as fragments, and not in its entirety. The memory is described as being like Alcyon's peace, which is a reference to Greek mythology where the mythological character Alcyone represents peace and tranquility. The final line of this verse, "And this amber link ambles through the sky" can be interpreted as a metaphor for the stranded protagonist who like amber, which is a resin which hardens over time, is frozen in time and has no control over where it goes.

The use of the word amnesia in the chorus of the song implies that despite the singer's attempts to remember the past, they are struggling with amnesia - a condition where one's memory is impaired. The repetition of the word amnesia in the chorus creates emphasis and reinforces the struggle that the singer is facing when they try to remember the lost delight. The overall tone of the song is melancholy and reflective, as the lyrics explore the pain that comes with a memory that is both beautiful yet out of reach.
