Amnesia
Second Of Summer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I thought about our last kiss, how it felt, the way you tasted
And even though your friends tell me you're doin' fine
Are you somewhere feeling lonely, even though he's right beside you?
When he says those words that hurt you, do you read the ones I wrote you?
Sometimes I start to wonder, was it just a lie?
If what we had was real, how could you be fine?
I remember the day you told me you were leavin'
I remember the make-up running down your face
And the dreams you left behind, you didn't need them
Like every single wish we ever made
I wish that I could wake up with amnesia
And forget about the stupid little things
Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you
And the memories I never can escape
'Cause I'm not fine at all
The pictures that you sent me, they're still livin' in my phone
I'll admit I like to see them, I'll admit I feel alone
And all my friends keep asking why I'm not around
It hurts to know you're happy, yeah, it hurts that you moved on
It's hard to hear your name when I haven't seen you in so long
It's like we never happened, was it just a lie?
If what we had was real, how could you be fine?
'Cause I'm not fine at all
I remember the day you told me you were leavin'
I remember the make-up running down your face
And the dreams you left behind, you didn't need them
Like every single wish we ever made
I wish that I could wake up with amnesia
And forget about the stupid little things
Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you
And the memories I never can escape
If today I woke up with you right beside me
Like all of this was just some twisted dream
I'd hold you closer than I ever did before
And you'd never slip away
And you'd never hear me say
I remember the day you told me you were leavin'
I remember the make-up running down your face
And the dreams you left behind, you didn't need them
Like every single wish we ever made
I wish that I could wake up with amnesia
And forget about the stupid little things
Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you
And the memories I never can escape
'Cause I'm not fine at all
No, I'm really not fine at all
Tell me this is just a dream
'Cause I'm really not fine at all
5 Seconds Of Summer's song "Amnesia" tells the story of heartbreak and longing for a lost love. In the first verse, the singer reflects on driving by places where they used to hang out and get drunk with their ex-lover. They think about the last kiss and how they tasted, wondering if their ex still thinks about them even though their friends say they're doing fine. The chorus is a poignant plea to forget the memories and wishes that they shared together because it hurts too much to remember.
The second verse focuses on the lingering effect of memories of their ex. The singer admits to still having pictures of them on their phone and feeling alone. They are absent from their friend's circle and can't stand hearing the ex's name since they haven't seen them in so long. The bridge offers a temporary escape, a hypothetical dreamy scenario where the lost love returns, and they can hold them closer than ever, knowing they won't slip away anymore. The song ends with the broken-hearted narrator still in pain, wishing it were all just a dream.
