Memories Lyrics

Our bodies are like clouds

They don't exist

We are water making shapes

Then it's gone

People see different things

But none is real

The contents return to earth

To make new ones

Born ghosts in purgatory

Illusions in space

Has anyone ever built

The horizon

Do we go to a better place

Or disappear

Are we saved or damned

Or no more

How are we any less real

Than memories

Body and mind are the same

All that's left of us after this

Are our names

Atoms moving through the air

To make a sound

Words attempt to make sense of it

A human invention

No more real than the only ones

That can read it

Do we go to a better place

Or disappear

Are we saved or damned

Or no more

How are we any less real

Than memories

Body and mind are the same

What doesn't exist can only

Be perceived by those

Who are not really there

Meaning has no meaning

It makes no sense for those

With no sense to care

Do we go to a better place

Or disappear

Are we saved or damned

Or no more

How are we any less real

Than memories

Body and mind are the same

Fake

Life is just atoms rearranged

Death too

Love is just a chemical

Grief too

We give them meaning

By choice
