Memory Rift
(check the
tape) Did it happen like you thought it did?
Or did someone swap the page?
I swear the bear had an E at the end The painting
had a goblet in the hand of a friend Flip through the
photo books, look at the seam Somebody cut the seam out of
the dream Memory fractured,
the timeline bends We remember the funeral,
they say he didn't end Static on the glass,
rewrite the test Nothing stays true in the collective chest
Tell me what you saw
Tell me what you swore you knew
Every single rule is gone
Nothing in the frame is true
Rewriting every yesterday Was it gold or was it gray?
We all remember it so clear Now it never happened here (never
happened here) Rewriting every yesterday Slip away,
slip away
The logo on the shirt had a tail on the crest Now
they say it never was,
put the myth to rest Five million strangers quoting lines that don't
exist Mirror on the wall,
who was betrayed by the twist?
Parallel tracks crossing in the deep dark Rewind the film,
leave an incision mark If the past can be scrubbed clean in
plain sight Who's turning off the switches in the middle of the
night?
Tell me what you saw
Tell me what you swore you knew
Every single rule is gone
Nothing in the frame is true
Rewriting every yesterday Was it gold or was it gray?
We all remember it so clear Now it never happened here (never
happened here) Rewriting every yesterday Slip away,
slip away
Two timelines collided in the dark
Which one did you wake up on?
(did you wake up?)
Don't trust the memory
It was gone before the dawn
Rewriting every yesterday Was it gold or was it gray?
We all remember it so clear Now it never happened here (I
know
it was
real!) Rewriting every yesterday Slip away,
slip away
Just a phantom on the tape.
Did you remember it?
Or did they let it slip?
