SOiL Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I've said my final goodbyes,
Out of site when I'm out of your mind
Will you remember.
My time is all I had to give,
weighed down by the life that I live.
Could you, should you, would you remember.
Will I live again?!
When father time has closed my eyes
and I've said my final goodbyes,
Out of site when I'm out of your mind
will you remember
Will you remember me,
Will you forget me?
Will you remember me,
Will you ... hear me
My face painted with peace
My life embraced when you speak
Do you remember the child, boy, man
What's right is not what today brings
The sun rises but does not set
On our sweet memories now do you remember
Will I live again?!
When father time has closed my eyes
and I've said my final goodbyes,
Out of site when I'm out of your mind
will you remember
Will you remember me,
Will you forget me?
Will you remember me,
Will you ... hear me
When this world knocked me down
I stood my ground for another round
Will you remember
All the good times and every bad
And all the time between
My ears always listening
My soul inhaled when you breathed
Out of sight when I'm out of your mind
I will not leave you
I will remember you
I won't forget you
I will remember you
I won't... Will you?
:,: When father time has closed my eyes
and I've said my final goodbyes,
Out of site when I'm out of your mind
will you remember :,:
Will you remember me,
Will you forget me?
Will you remember me,
Will you ... hear me
Will you remember me,
Will you forget me?
Will you remember me,
Don't you forget me!
The lyrics of this song are melancholic and contemplative, touching upon the themes of life, death, and remembrance. The opening lines refer to the final moments of the singer's life, as he asks if he'll be remembered after he's gone. He questions whether the time he spent on Earth will be remembered by others once he is no longer around. The lyrics mention the weight of his life, likely referring to the challenges and difficulties he faced, which may have made it harder for him to leave a lasting memory. However, the song also implies that the singer is at peace with himself and accepts his place in the world.
The chorus repeats the central question of the song: "Will you remember me?" The singer wonders if his legacy will be forgotten, or if he will live on in the memories of those he left behind. He mentions the "good times and every bad," suggesting that he wants to be remembered for his whole life, not just the happy moments. The final verse expresses the singer's desire to be remembered, even if he's no longer actively present. He promises to remember those he's lost, highlighting the importance of keeping the memory of loved ones alive.

When father time has closed my eyes
When I die
And I've said my final goodbyes,
When I have left this world behind
Out of site when I'm out of your mind
If I am forgotten when I am gone
Will you remember.
Will you keep me in your memory
My time is all I had to give,
My life was all I had to offer
weighed down by the life that I live.
Burdened by the difficulties of life
Could you, should you, would you remember.
Might you recall me
Will I live again?!
Will I be reborn
Will you remember me,
Will you keep me in your memory
Will you forget me?
Will I be forgotten by you
Will you ... hear me
Will you listen to my voice
My face painted with peace
I have found inner tranquility
My life embraced when you speak
I find comfort in your words
Do you remember the child, boy, man
Do you recall my different stages of life
What's right is not what today brings
The present does not always bring what is right
The sun rises but does not set
We are left with our memories
On our sweet memories now do you remember
Do you still remember our happy times together
When this world knocked me down
When I faced difficulties in life
I stood my ground for another round
I persevered and kept going
All the good times and every bad
Both the happy and difficult times
And all the time between
All the moments we shared
My ears always listening
I am always attentive to what you have to say
My soul inhaled when you breathed
I feel connected to you on a deep level
Out of sight when I'm out of your mind
If I am forgotten by you
I will not leave you
I will always be with you in spirit
I will remember you
You will stay in my memory
I won't forget you
I will not let you be forgotten
Don't you forget me!
Please do not forget me

I consider Soil one of those timeless bands, up there with Metallica, Maiden, Dio, Korn, Nirvana etc
Their style may not have paid off in the previous decade but today they are remembered(no pun intended).
