My first completed single, with vocals! See Daphne, and more, on The Florist EP, coming soon!





(It was actually Guitar Hero, but Rock Band was easier to rhyme with)

lyrics

It’s always the weirdest things, that we remember:
The songs that she’d play in the Spring, were meant for December,
How her voice cracked when she’d sing, oh how it upset her!
The sunglasses she’d be wearing, just a little off-center,

Off-center!
Remember!

Do you remember, do you remember?
The 25th or 26th of November?
Do you remember?
I still remember,

I still remember!
The old silly name that she gave to her car,
Don’t know the make or the model, though we took her so far
Don’t even know half the places we’d go,
But I still remember how we’d get on the road

As if we’d rehearsed she would smile at me,
Reach into her purse and she’d pull out her key,
Don’t remember days or times we arrived,
But I remember the way she’d say:

D’you wanna drive?

I don’t know!
The way that I look in your mind,
The split in-
Between your mem’ries and mine,
It’s only!
Gotten more diff’rent with time
(Just more diff’rent with time)
(In your mem’ries and mind)

So when my voice and face,
Both get erased,
What of me will stay?
Will there be a trace?
(Your face is erased)
(There won’t be a trace)


I wonder!
What you think when you think of me,
Parts of me-
You did and you didn’t see,
All before!
You moved back to Tennessee.

I don’t know
The way that I look in your thoughts,
Good feelings
If there’s none left, or a lot
These memories
Are all that I’ve got

I still remember your hand, resting on my cheek
I still remember Rock Band, and our perfect note streak
Blasting music in my van, on that trip to DC,
If you never saw me again,
How would you remember me?

Remember me?

Remember me.
