Amnesia
Mr Kitty Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

A sickness inside
From demons I hide
My mind is consumed
Fill me up with gloom

As I grow old, I will forget you
As time moves on, I won′t remember
As I grow old, I will forget you
As time moves on, I won't remember

Once there was a time
I could close my eyes
Condemned to my shell
Sickness and in health

As I grow old, I will forget you
As time moves on, I won′t remember
As I grow old, I will forget you
As time moves on, I won't remember





(Repeat x 2)
