DAMN THESE MEMORIES
THEY'RE GETTING THE BEST OF ME
I TRY TO FORGET THE PAST
BUT THE IMAGES EXPLODE LIKE FIREWORKS
PAINTING A PICTURE OF ALL THE THINGS
THAT ONCE MADE ME HURT.
WITH EACH MEMORY MY HEART FADES A LITTLE QUICKER
I WISH SOMEONE WOULD HAVE GIVEN ME FAIR WARNING
THEY PAINT PICTURES OF IT LIKE ITS BLISS
I WISH I WOULD'VE KNOW THAT IT WOULD HAVE LED
LED ME TO ALL THIS
MY ENERGY IS FADING LIKE MONEY DURING THE RECESSION
SOMETHING THAT WAS ONCE PLENTY AND IS NOW
A FAINT BLESSING.
MY EXTERIOR IS ROUGH TILL THE IMAGES START COMING
THEN YOU'LL FIND ME CONFUSED ASKING IF ITS DAY OR NIGHT
LIKE KID CUDI.
THEY SAY I'M HEARTLESS
BUT I PROMISE YOU THIS
ITS JUST THOSE DAMN MEMORIES
THAT ARE TAKING ALL OF MY ENERGY
IN ITS ONCE ABUNDANT AMOUNTS
NOW GOT ME FEELING LIKE I NEED A NEW BATTERY.
ALL THOSE IMAGES OF PAST PAIN
ARE BLOWING UP INSIDE MY BRAIN
I FEEL LIKE IM ABOUT TO GO INSANE.
I'M LIKE A LION STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CIRCUS
SPOTLIGHTS ON ME BUT I FORGOT TO LEAP
THROUGH THE HOOP OF FIRE.
THEIR ALL STARING AT ME WONDERING WHAT IT IS I DESIRE
THEY WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND CUZ THEY CAN'T SEE
THE IMAGES I SEE.
NOT EVERYONE SUFFERS FROM MY DISEASE.
THE DISEASE OF MY MEMORIES.
