Memory
Sense Field Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You're just another drug I'm an addict of
I can't play your fucked up guessing game
Jealous and out of my head
Cause I know why you want me around
So you've got someone to push around
And when I'm free, you're nothing but a memory
And when I'm free, you're nothing but a memory
And when I'm free, you're nothing but a memory
I hope my memory fades
You'll always hold a place inside my heart
I'll tear it out of me so I can start
To feel alive instead of dead inside
Fucked up and out of my head
Cause I know why you want me around
So you've got someone to push around
[Chorus]
I hope my memory fades
Fades away
Fades away
Fades away
Fades away
Fades away
Fades away
Fades away
I hope my memory fades
I hope my memory fades
I hope my memory fades
I hope my memory fades
I hope my memory fades
