Remembering Me
Echoes of a Remade Life: Cate Le Bon's Melodic Reflections
Lyrics
In the remake of my life
In the process of reimagining my life
I moved in straight lines
I followed a direct path
My hair was beautiful
My hair had a pleasing appearance
My eyes were slow
My eyes were moving slowly
I hate the heart and the thunderclap
I despise the intensity of emotions and sudden loud noises
How about that?
A rhetorical expression of surprise or approval
My blood from the letter
My blood originated from a written message
A flip of moment
A brief and sudden change of circumstance
Upset and out of touch
Feeling disturbed and disconnected
Good grief, you miss so much
An expression of astonishment at what has been missed
Oh, oh, remember me (oh, oh, oh)
An appeal to be remembered
Louder than empty rooms
Noise louder than the absence of people
Face down in heirlooms
Lying face down among family possessions passed down through generations
Oh, oh, remembering me (oh, oh, oh)
A repetition of the plea to be remembered
In the classical rewrite
In a classic revision of my story
I wore the heat like
I endured hardship with resilience
A hundred birthday cakes
A metaphorical reference to numerous life experiences
Under one sun
Beneath a single source of light
I didn't need anyone
Being self-sufficient, not relying on others
On my own luck
Depending on my own luck
I arrived just to seat the choir
I appeared to lead a musical group
And bowled them over
Achieving success and surprising them
Upset, and out of touch
Feeling disturbed and disconnected once again
Good grief, you miss so much
An expression of astonishment at what has been missed (repeated)
Oh, oh, remember me (oh, oh, oh)
A plea to be remembered (repeated)
Louder than empty rooms
Noise louder than the absence of people (repeated)
Face down in heirlooms
Lying face down among family possessions passed down through generations (repeated)
Oh, oh, remembering me (oh, oh, oh)
A repetition of the plea to be remembered (repeated)
Upset and out of touch
Feeling disturbed and disconnected once again (repeated)
Good grief, you miss so much
An expression of astonishment at what has been missed (repeated)
Oh, oh, remember me (oh, oh, oh)
A plea to be remembered (repeated)
Louder than empty rooms
Noise louder than the absence of people (repeated)
Face down in heirlooms
Lying face down among family possessions passed down through generations (repeated)
Oh, oh, remember me (oh, oh, oh)
A repetition of the plea to be remembered (repeated)
I must leave the house
A decision to leave one's dwelling
I don't wanna be on my own
Reluctance to be alone
Oh, oh, remember me (oh, oh, oh)
A final plea to be remembered
Oh, oh, I'm not so good
An acknowledgment of personal shortcomings
Put down, I never could
Feeling dejected and unable to assert oneself
Oh, oh, remembering me (oh, oh, oh)
A final repetition of the plea to be remembered (repeated)
