Memoires
Psy'Aviah Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I remember when the days were filled with light
Dancing in the morning dew
I remember when that our future was still bright
It seemed forever, me and you

But not all mornings bring a treasure filled with gold
Our names have vanished in the sky
And now the children all do just the way they’re told
They don’t remember asking why

It didn’t matter when we tried raising our voice
And sang the prayers they didn’t hear
They made it clear that we would never have a choice
Forever filled our hearts with fear

But now the woods are gone and the mountains cry
They never cared for all the beauty of our lands
Now the fields are dead and the lakes are dry
We were just fools, thinking the truth lies in our hands





Never will we see again the days of the smiling sun
Always will we feel the pain when it all begun

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Psy'Aviah's song "Memoires" reflect on a beautiful past that is now lost, and the pain that comes with it. The singer remembers a time when the world was full of light, and they danced in the morning dew. It was a time when the future looked bright for the singer and their loved one. However, the present day is vastly different, and the children only do what they're told. They don't remember to question things like the singer and their loved one did in the past.


The song reflects on how attempting to raise one's voice and ask questions was futile, as those in power did not listen. Fear was instilled in the hearts of the singer and their loved one. The world they once knew has been stripped away, and now the woods are gone, the mountains cry, and the fields are dead. The truth they believed lied in their hands was merely an illusion, and there is no going back in time to the days of the smiling sun. The pain remains, as the present is a stark contrast to the past they once cherished.


Line by Line Meaning

I remember when the days were filled with light
I recall a time when life was bright and joyful


Dancing in the morning dew
Enjoying the beauty of nature and feeling carefree


I remember when that our future was still bright
The future seemed full of potential and opportunity


It seemed forever, me and you
We believed that our love would last eternally


But not all mornings bring a treasure filled with gold
Life can be unpredictable and sometimes disappointing


Our names have vanished in the sky
Our memories and accomplishments have been forgotten


And now the children all do just the way they’re told
The youth have lost their sense of creativity and independence


They don’t remember asking why
They have accepted the status quo and don't question authority


It didn’t matter when we tried raising our voice
Our attempts at speaking out were futile


And sang the prayers they didn’t hear
Our pleas went unheard and unanswered


They made it clear that we would never have a choice
Those in power refused to grant us freedom or autonomy


Forever filled our hearts with fear
We were constantly anxious and afraid of repercussions


But now the woods are gone and the mountains cry
The environment has been destroyed and weeping for its loss


They never cared for all the beauty of our lands
Those in charge were indifferent to the natural treasures of the earth


Now the fields are dead and the lakes are dry
The damage done to the ecosystem is irreversible and devastating


We were just fools, thinking the truth lies in our hands
Our misguided sense of control led to our downfall


Never will we see again the days of the smiling sun
We can't return to a time when happiness and hope were abundant


Always will we feel the pain when it all begun
The hurt and regret will linger from the moment everything changed
