Invented Memory
Echoes of Sweet Uncertainty: Minus the Bear's Invented Memory
Lyrics
Do you remember when we were young
Reflecting on youth and reminiscing about the past
Yesterday, yesterday
Highlighting the immediacy of the past
Time is a song in memory
Time is likened to a song stored in memory
That is to say, that is to say
Emphasizing the significance of memory
Nothing's really going on
Suggesting that events might lack substantial importance
It's just movement in space
Life's actions are merely movements in space
Reactions from one to another
Interactions and responses between individuals
In faded memory
Memories losing clarity or fading over time
Throw all the clocks out
Discarding conventional timekeeping devices
Tell time by touch
Suggesting an alternative way to perceive time
Feel it fall through your fingers
Experiencing time slipping away
As it rains down on us
Metaphorical depiction of time passing
Do you remember our fight against love
Recollection of conflicts in a relationship
In defeat you waived a flag
Accepting defeat or vulnerability in love
Surrendered to sweet uncertainty
Embracing uncertainty in a relationship
Reactions from you to me
Interactions and reactions within the relationship
Invented memory
Imagined or altered recollection of events
Throw all the clocks out
Reiteration of discarding conventional timekeeping
Tell time by touch
Advocating a tactile way of perceiving time
Feel it fall through your fingers
Sensing time slipping away
As it rains down on us
Metaphorical depiction of time passing
Do you remember when we were young
Reiteration of reminiscing about youth
Yesterday, yesterday
Emphasizing the immediacy of the past
Throw all the clocks out
Repetition of discarding conventional timekeeping
Tell time by touch
Advocating a tactile way of perceiving time
Feel it fall through your fingers
Sensing time slipping away
As it rains down on us
Metaphorical depiction of time passing
Throw all the clocks out
Repetition of discarding conventional timekeeping
Tell time by touch
Advocating a tactile way of perceiving time
Feel it fall through your fingers
Sensing time slipping away
As it rains down on us
Metaphorical depiction of time passing
Raining down on us
Metaphorically representing challenges or emotions raining down
Rain down
Repetition of metaphorical rain representing challenges/emotions
Raining down on us
Continuation of metaphorical challenges or emotions raining down
Rain down
Repetition of metaphorical rain representing challenges/emotions
