Memory's a Ghost
Journey through Love and Loss: Memory's Echo in Phantom Phunk's Melody
Lyrics
I remember chilling on a Saturday
I have a memory of relaxing on a Saturday.
It was bittersweet I wiped your tears away.
The memory involves a mix of emotions; I comforted someone by wiping away their tears.
I can probably take you to another place I just see a love that I just can’t replace.
I can potentially transport you to another emotional state, but I still sense a love that I cannot replace.
You just got a lot that’s really on ya mind You can see my pain and you can see I’m trying Say you want to leave but you should be flying Ain’t nobody living it’s a lot of dying
The person has a lot on their mind; they can perceive my pain and efforts. Despite expressing a desire to leave, they should be thriving. There's a contrast between living and a prevalence of dying.
