lyrics

I am your memory
I am your father
I have no time to waste
I am not keeping to myself
I am the friend you used to see but you don't call her
We used to talk more but I see you've found some other friends
I have no time to waste
I am outside of time
I am a vision on the back of your eyelids

You think you want me back
You don't know what you're asking
You helpless animal, you're bored as brick and mortar
You helpless animal, you're hard as brick and mortar

I have no memories, I just can't bother
You'll have to be specific, it's easy to forget
I haven't change my mind, my mind is empty
Your familiar face evokes a distant muted ring
I am up to the light, I am transparent
You want to bring me color, I want it black and white

You want to change your head
You think me up instead
I'll be your non-compliant in this nightmare your having
You'll be the living body that I will inhabit
Because I can't live in your memory
Because memories aren't real

The nature of perfection
Is it thin air or is there a lesson
